Description enrico.scholz 1999-09-07 20:26:32 UTC 
mke2fs of the e2fsprogs-package>=1.15 is creating
filesystems with revision level #1 by default.

This revision level is not understood by dump and aborts
dump with "Get a newer version of dump!".
Comment 1 Jeff Johnson 1999-09-08 15:52:59 UTC 
What version of dump are you using? The latest in Raw Hide is
dump-0.4b4-9.

Some information about my system:
$ rpm -q dump e2fsprogs

Filesystem volume name:   /boot
Last mounted on:          <not available>
Filesystem UUID:          ....
