[Dump-users] Help with -A option

[dvg <dim...@jp...>]

I am playing with the -A option for the first time and not
having much luck. This is on RHEL4U6 with dump-0.4b39-3.EL4.2
provided by Red Hat.


I created a test dump file with:

dump -0 -A contents -f dump.file /share

(/share is the /dev/sdc2 partition on this system and
README.txt is one of the existing files)


Now I want to use the "contents" file to restore:


restore -t -A contents -f dump.file  README.txt
Dump   date: Sat Jan  5 11:09:46 2008
Dumped from: the epoch
Level 0 dump of /share on host.jpl.nasa.gov:/dev/sdc2
Label: none
resync restore, skipped 1 blocks
resync restore, skipped 1 blocks
Segmentation fault


I thought maybe I don't need -f so I tried it that way, too:

restore -t -A contents  README.txt
Dump   date: Sat Jan  5 11:09:46 2008
Dumped from: the epoch
Level 0 dump of /share on host.jpl.nasa.gov:/dev/sdc2
Label: none
resync restore, skipped 1 blocks
resync restore, skipped 1 blocks
Segmentation fault


What is wrong with my syntax here?
