[CentOS] Diskdump on a Logical Volume.

Alle,

	I'm trying to setup diskdump on a FJ E7110 notebook. Disk partitions 
were auto configured, using /dev/hda1 for /boot and /dev/hda2 for 
VolGroup00 (LogVol00 (/) and LogVol01 (swap)).
	Can diskdump be configured to use the logical swap volume? When I try 
to do the setup, the following occurs:

[root at HOST sysconfig]# service diskdump initialformat
Formatting dump device:
/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01: skipped (swap device)
[root at HOST sysconfig]#

	Any help would be appreciated.

Best Regards,
Camron
