Did that and sure enough, there it was. Dump error on /dev/hda2. Why? Reiserfs is not dump-able? News to me. Argh!!


Neither would be the subdirectory /etc in ext[23]...  Dump cannot
do subdirectories (some can, but then they cannot do incrementals);
use gnutar.


I have changed the disklist to do tar.

tesla.hackermonkey.com          /etc            user-tar

Only now I get the error

FAILURE AND STRANGE DUMP SUMMARY:
 tesla.hack /usr lev 0 FAILED [can't switch to incremental dump]


Im assuming this is because I had tried, and failed, using dump before, and now I need to 'clean out' the database records? How do I reinitalize it back to 'this is the first backup you'll ever do' state?
