-Changes between versions 0.4b24 and 0.4b25 (released ??????????????????)
-========================================================================
+Changes between versions 0.4b24 and 0.4b25 (released November 17, 2001)
+=======================================================================
1. Added a mini howto from Patrick Walsh in the examples
directory.
+2. Minor man pages syntax corrections. Thanks to
+ Chris Danis <screechco@home.com> for reporting the bugs.
+
+3. Added a script from David B. Peterson <dave@toppledwagon.com>
+ to the examples section. It features dumping several
+ filesystems to a remote tape drive upon ssh.
+
+4. Added a patch provided by Richard Jones <rich@annexia.org>
+ which allows BRADEMAX (number of read errors tolerated by
+ dump) to be adjusted using the -I option.
+
+5. Fixed a bug which disabled doing "restore -C -f -". Thanks
+ to Clemens Stiglechner <a9401816@unet.univie.ac.at> for the
+ patch.
+
+6. Add the -l option to restore to specify if, when doing a
+ remote restore, the file used to access the backup is a
+ regular file (the defaults being a tape drive). Restore needs
+ to know this information when reading a remote compressed
+ dump. Previously, this information was autodetected, but
+ the autodetection code fails (with ioctl: Inappropriate ioctl
+ for device) when using a non Linux remote box. Thanks to
+ many users and especially to Eros Albertazzi
+ <eros@lamel.bo.cnr.it> for reporting this.
+
+7. Found a workaroung for the dump deadlock problem (3 childs
+ stuck in pause(), father in read()). The workaround seems
+ to work for me and several beta-testers. If it doesn't work
+ for you, please report back.
+
+8. Updated the RPM spec file (BuildPrereq, URL etc).
