On FreeBSD there is a similar command in addition to dump's capabiltity. mksnap_ffs(8). > are comparable. Just as a long shot, I did `man dump` on my Mac OS X > system (which is related to FreeBSD), but it has no "L" option. Mac OS X doesn't have a current FFS/Softdep implementation but favours HFS+ with their new logging extensions. HTH, Patrick M.
