3 | Changes between versions 0.4b30 and 0.4b31 (released July 30, 2002) | |
4 | =================================================================== | |
5 | ||
6 | 1. Fixed rmt open flags transmission (GNU's symbolic syntax over | |
7 | rmt) which I broke in 0.4b29. Thanks to Eros Albertazzi | |
8 | <eros@lamel.bo.cnr.it> for reporting the bug. | |

10 | Changes between versions 0.4b29 and 0.4b30 (released July 25, 2002) | |
11 | =================================================================== | |
12 | ||
13 | 1. Made dump print out the ext2 logical block number in case of a read | |
14 | error, which can be given as an argument to debugfs' ncheck command, | |
15 | in order to find out the affected inode. Added note about this | |
16 | usage in dump's man page. | |
17 | ||
18 | 2. Fixed a problem in restore when reading tapes written on big | |
19 | endian machines with very old versions of dump. The patch was | |
20 | contributed by George Helffrich <george@geology.bristol.ac.uk>. | |
21 | ||
22 | 3. Fixed the tape length calculation when using large tapes | |
23 | and compression. Thanks to Georg Lippold | |
24 | <g_lippold@sourceforge.net> for reporting the bug. | |
25 | ||
26 | 4. Added a new set of examples in dump_on_cd_2 directory, based | |
27 | on dump_on_cd examples but somewhat enhanced, supporting DVD | |
28 | media, and localized in english and german. Thanks to | |
29 | Georg Lippold <g_lippold@sourceforge.net> for the new scripts. | |
30 | ||
31 | 5. Made dump save 32 bit UID/GID. Internally, this was achieved | |
32 | by switching from the old BSD inode format to the new BSD | |
33 | inode format, which means that the tape format was changed. | |
34 | However, since all restore versions out there should | |
35 | transparently support both inode formats, the change should | |
36 | have no side effects. Thanks to John Yu <jky@cs.bu.edu> for | |
37 | reporting the bug. | |
38 | ||
39 | 6. Fixed a lot of warnings in the code shown when compiling | |
40 | with 'gcc -W'. Thanks to Matthias Andree | |
41 | <matthias.andree@stud.uni-dortmund.de> for reporting this. | |
42 | ||
43 | 7. Fixed a small markup bug in the dump man page. Thanks to | |
44 | Eric S. Raymond <esr@minx.thyrsus.com> for submitting the | |
45 | patch. | |
46 | ||
47 | 8. Rewrote entirely the man pages using the tmac.an macro | |
48 | package (Linux man page format) instead of the original BSD | |
49 | format. They should be now cleaner and easier to modify. | |
50 | ||
51 | Changes between versions 0.4b28 and 0.4b29 (released June 8, 2002) | |
52 | ================================================================== | |
53 | ||
54 | 1. Fixed a problem in the rmt ioctl command, where ioctl's issued from | |
55 | non Linux clients were misinterpreted. The description of the problem | |
56 | (incompatible numbering in Linux mtio opcodes) is documented at | |
57 | ftp://ftp.fokus.gmd.de/pub/unix/star/README.mtio . Thanks to | |
