I'm trying to dump / and /usr to a second drive.

The / dumped fine but I run into some problems when I tried to dump
/usr. 
After the dump started I was asked the following continuously: 
<snip>
  DUMP: Change Volumes: Mount volume #25
  DUMP: Is the new volume mounted and ready to go?: ("yes" or "no") y
  DUMP: Volume 25 begins with blocks from inode 7531318
  DUMP: Closing /bckup/usrdump/usr-20020809.dump
</snip>

I stopped the dump at "Mount volume #35". At that time dump had created
a 40MB file. However /usr is 1.2GB.

Is it correct that dump should ask all these "Mount volume" questions?
If so, is there a silent flag? I could not find one in the man pages.
