        very large files were encountered. Thanks to Vladimir Nadvornik 
        for the bug report.
 
+8.     Added a ioctl(BLKFLSBUF) in dump which should flush the
+       kernel buffer/page cache before starting the dump, helping
+       a bit those who use dump on mounted filesystems. Thanks to
+       John Yu <jky@it.bu.edu> and to Theodore T'so <tytso@mit.edu>
+       for this suggestion.
+
+9.     Updated the RPM spec file following the RedHat changes 
+       (dynamically linked binaries now in /usr/sbin etc).
+
+10.    Added a patch from Helmut Jarausch <jarausch@igpm.rwth-aachen.de>
+       which enables restore to recognise multi volume compressed dumps
+       done on CD. Included his scripts for dump (which pipe the dump
+       output directly into cdrecord) and restore. There is now 
+       possible to to backups to CD on the fly!
