Well, what I want to backup is a directory named /data0, which is inside
a reiserfs filesystem mounted on /dev/md0 which is a raid device...
gathering more info I've seen DUMP failing, but how come it's trying to
dump it?? I simply want backup of /data0, so tar should be the way, no?
Perhaps tar is failing at some point?
