-Changes between versions 0.4b28 and 0.4b29 (released ??????????????)

+Changes between versions 0.4b29 and 0.4b30 (released ????????????????)

+
+1. Made dump print out the ext2 logical block number in case of a read
+ error, which can be given as an argument to debugfs' ncheck command,
+ in order to find out the affected inode. Added note about this
+ usage in dump's man page.
+
+2. Fixed a problem in restore when reading tapes written on big
+ endian machines with very old versions of dump. The patch was
+ contributed by George Helffrich <george@geology.bristol.ac.uk>.
+
+3. Fixed the tape length calculation when using large tapes
+ and compression. Thanks to Georg Lippold
+ <g_lippold@sourceforge.net> for reporting the bug.
+
+4. Added a new set of examples in dump_on_cd_2 directory, based
+ on dump_on_cd examples but somewhat enhanced, supporting DVD
+ media, and localized in english and german. Thanks to
+ Georg Lippold <g_lippold@sourceforge.net> for the new scripts.
+
+5. Made dump save 32 bit UID/GID. Internally, this was achieved
+ by switching from the old BSD inode format to the new BSD
+ inode format, which means that the tape format was changed.
+ However, since all restore versions out there should
+ transparently support both inode formats, the change should
+ have no side effects. Thanks to John Yu <jky@cs.bu.edu> for
+ reporting the bug.
