There's the "system" disk with the root partition mounted as / and the "backup" disk mounted as /backup. If you did this: /sbin/dump -0u -f /backup/rootbackup / you would wind up with a dump image of your root filesystem on your backup disk and it would be called "rootbackup". That works for me. Cheers,
