It should be easier to use dump in scripts with this option. +5. Detect the use of incompatible options to dump and + refuse them (like -a and -B options together). + +6. Added bzip2 compression to dump/restore (use option -j level + to select it). Note that you will need a restore version + >= 0.4b24 in order to restore a bzip2 compressed dump. + The same warning as for the zlib compression applies: + the tape format of a bzip2 dump is not compatible with the + original BSD tape format. + +7. Fixed a overflow problem in dump corrupting the dump when + 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 and to Theodore T'so + 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 + 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! + Changes between versions 0.4b22 and 0.4b23 (released July 20, 2001) ===================================================================
