DUMP: WARNING: should use -L when dumping live read-write filesystems!

I thought you said it was a read-only filesystem?
It was yesterday. Today I remounted it rw to remove some junk-files, which I don't need to transfer. I don't believe, this is causing the problems.
In my experience, restore can sometimes throw warnings if you dump a live filesystem. It might be causing your errors? If possible, can you try completely unmounting the filesystem you are dumping and trying again?
I don't think, restore can even figure this out, much less throw a warning -- it is dump, that complains... But the dump started this morning is still hanging (in sbwait) -- I've never seen this before. I'm also very troubled, that such an important functionality (dump/restore!) is sooo problem-prone, and yet so few people seem to care...

Is the official view, that dump is obsolete (and already bit-rotten), perhaps, and use of tar is encouraged instead?
