Re: Fw: Error while running amcheck/amdump

The /dev/hda6 mountpoint is /
I have added the mount point to the disklist file . The dumptype was set to
tar and then dump. amcheck detected no errors on the client host.
When amdump was run , a level 0 dump was done on /dev/hda6 ( as seen in
/etc/dumpdates).
If I put back hda6 in the disklist, amcheck gives me the same error reported
below.
Why can't /dev/hda6 be backed up ??? A manual dump of the latter on the
client works.

Thanx in advance
