-
-       A test release of dump 0.4 is now available on tsx-11.mit.edu,
-in the file /pub/linux/ALPHA/ext2fs/dump-0.4b1.tar.gz.
-
-       This new version is based on the latest dump and restore suite
-available from Berkeley (I have integrated the changes from 4.4BSD-Lite2).
-
-       It also includes lots of changes from the Debian 1.2 and Red Hat 4.0
-distributions (I have included most of the patches made by maintainers of
-these distributions).
-
-       Some changes were made to improve the portability of dump and restore:
-       - fixed size types are now used, so that the dump format is the same
-         on every architecture supported by Linux,
-       - dump now uses the Ext2fs library to get the block addresses
-         to solve an endianness problem that was present on SparcLinux.
-
-       Autoconf is now used to configure dump and restore.  I have shamelessly
-adapted the configure script from the one present in the e2fsprogs
-distribution (thanks Ted!).
-
-       Last, a few minor bugs have been fixed.
-
-       This version is a test release.  Use it only for testing :-)  New
-beta versions will probably be released before a stable dump 0.4 version is
-available.
-
-       If you encounter problems with this test release, please send a
-detailled bug report (please look at the file KNOWNBUGS before sending a
-bug report).
