Hey all,

This just got sent to me from a fellow SysAdmin this morning:
        http://www.uwsg.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0104.3/0727.html

Probably old news to many people on this list, but a few folks (like me)
might be unaware.  To sum it up in Linus' words:

"Dump may work fine for you a thousand times. But it _will_ fail under
the right circumstances. And there is nothing you can do about it."

Not the kind of thing you want to hear about your backup system.

Adios,
Brian
