OS:  FreeBSD 2.2.1
HD:  Quantum Bigfoot CY 4.3G IDE
DAT: HP C1533A DDS2 (4G)

While running the following command:

> rdump 0af iim:/dev/nrst0 /mnt
  or
> rdump 0sdf 20000 20000 iim:/dev/nrst0 /mnt

It shows the error:
  DUMP: Connection to iim.NCTU.edu.tw established.
  DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Sun Apr 27 19:05:22 1997
  DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch
  DUMP: Dumping /mnt to /dev/nrst0 on host iim
  DUMP: bad sblock magic number
  DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted.

But the most strange thing is my HD is working just fine.
All the files in the partition are correct and running fsck also
report no error. It doesn't seem like bad FS_MAGIC.

Is it a bug of FreeBSD handling big IDE partition or
simply a bug of dump/rdump?
