ext3 and tar
    

Tar does filesystem-level backup, dump deals with devices.  Try
changing your disklist entry to /  (or whatever /dev/hda1 is

When I run amcheck -cl normal



I get the following back from the linux client:



ERROR: /dev/hda1 selftest does not support device

ERROR: /dev/hda1 sendbackup does not support device
  


What type of filesystem is on /dev/hda1 and what program are you trying

to back it up with?
