narcissus:{/home/ben}% mount
/dev/sd0a on / (local)
/dev/sd0s3f on /usr (local)
/dev/sd0s3e on /var (local)
procfs on /proc (local)
/dev/sd1s1f on /usr/tmp (local)
/dev/sd1s1g on /usr/baz (local)
/dev/sd1s1e on /usr/obj (local)

Now, I can get /dev/sd0a to dump fine; likewise /dev/sd0f.  But when I try
to dump /usr, I get the following:

narcissus:{/home/ben}% dump 0uf /dev/rst0 /dev/sd0f
  DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Wed Jul 30 02:58:18 1997
  DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch
  DUMP: Dumping /dev/sd0f to /dev/rst0
  DUMP: mapping (Pass I) [regular files]
  DUMP: mapping (Pass II) [directories]
  DUMP: estimated 1023505 tape blocks on 26.30 tape(s).

And it proceeds to dump until it runs out of room.

The thing is, this is a 4-gig tape, and it's a 2-gig drive, so something's
not quite right here.

Any ideas?
