Made a dump tape under NetBSD 1.4.2 (pmax). AM trying to restore it under
1.5 and am getting a message that the block size of 512 is not
a multiple of 1024 (dump blocksize). I tested the restores under 1.4.2
When I try to use the -b flag I get a checksum error. I made the dump
use the -B flag with a parameter of 4MB. Any ideas how to restore
from the tape. Not having it will cost hours and hours of work. Please
respond to francus@jthome.com since the account I receive email on
from the netbsd lists is currently hosed.
thanks for the help
