-Changes between versions 0.4b25 and 0.4b26 (released ?????????????????)
+Changes between versions 0.4b27 and 0.4b28 (released ?????????????????)
=======================================================================
+1. Fixed a bug in the QFA feature which could have caused
+ a bad tape positionning on restore (causing extra delays in
+ restore). Credits go to Uwe Gohlke <uwe@ugsoft.de>.
+
+2. Added a small note in the dump man page specifying that
+ there should be no white space between the option letter and
+ the -j or -z parameter, thanks to Kenneth Porter <shiva@well.com>
+
+Changes between versions 0.4b26 and 0.4b27 (released February 15, 2002)
+=======================================================================
+
+1. Fixed behaviour of dump when exceeding resource limits
+ (SIGXFSZ treatment).
+
+2. Added the -L flag to restore to allow the user to specify a
+ maximal allowed number of miscompares when using restore
+ with the -C option to check the backup.
+
+3. Detailed the manual entry for the -N option of restore.
+
+4. Added the -a flag to restore to make able doing unattended
+ restores in -i or -x mode (automatically walks through the
+ multiple dump volumes).
+
+5. Extended the QFA mode to work with local files and/or
+ remote tapes and files. This way, restore can know in advance
+ the tape number and the offset for the inodes to extract and
+ can minimize the extraction time by seeking directly to the
+ good tape/offset.
+
+6. Added the -A <archive> option to both dump and restore,
+ which makes dump to archive a dump table-of-contents in
+ the specified file to be used by restore to determine
+ whether a file is in the dump file that is being restored.
+ (the archive file syntax is also compatible with the
+ Solaris ufsdump generated one).
+
+7. Small fix in restore making it able to read some (broken ?)
+ Solaris ufsdump tapes.
+
+8. Fixed dump to correctly recognise the root filesystem when using
+ ext2 disk labels (LABEL=/). Thanks to John Yu <jky@it.bu.edu>
+ for reporting this bug.
+
+9. Added the -P <file> option to restore to create a
+ Quick File Access file from an already made dump. Patch
+ contributed by Uwe Gohlke <uwe@ugsoft.de>.
+
+10. Made restore compile and run on Solaris, making it a
+ possible replacement for the standard ufsrestore. Port was
+ contributed by Uwe Gohlke <uwe@ugsoft.de>.
+
+Changes between versions 0.4b25 and 0.4b26 (released January 7, 2002)
+=====================================================================
+
1. Added a set of backup scripts from Eugenio Diaz
<getnito@yahoo.com> in the examples section. It features
automatic (cron based) full and incremental dumping of
restore some missing files on the tape. Thanks to Chris
Siebenmann <cks@utcc.utoronto.ca> for reporting the bug.
+4. Fixed --with-ldopts configure argument passing, installing from
+ a separate object directory, makefile cleanups contributed
+ by <splite@purdue.edu>.
+
+5. Fix a bug which could caused, in some conditions, the highest
+ number inode of a filesystem, to not be dumped. Many thanks
+ to Chris Siebenmann <cks@utcc.utoronto.ca> for helping me
+ chase this bug.
