+.PP
+At the end of restores in
+.B \-i
+or
+.B \-x
+modes (unless
+.B \-o
+option is in use),
+.B restore
+will ask the operator whether to set the permissions on the current
+directory. If the operator confirms this action, the permissions
+on the directory from where
+.B restore
+was launched will be replaced by the permissions on the dumped root
+inode. Although this behaviour is not really a bug, it has proven itself
+to be confusing for many users, so it is recommended to answer 'no',
+unless you're performing a full restore and you do want to restore the
+permissions on '/'.
+.PP
+It should be underlined that because it runs in user code,
+.B restore
+, when run with the
+.B \-C
+option, sees the files as the kernel presents them, whereas
+.B dump
+sees all the files on a given filesystem. In particular, this
+can cause some confusion when comparing a dumped filesystem a part
+of which is hidden by a filesystem mounted on top of it.
