I want to bakup some files and dump returns:

newimage is a file whith a  FreeBsd file system
i make:   vnconfig /dev/vn0 newimage

then:

my_host:/home/ignacio/test# dump -0  -f /dev/vn0c 
/home/ignacio/test/read/
  DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Thu Aug 31 17:00:19 2000
  DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch
  DUMP: Dumping /home/ignacio/test/read/ to /dev/vn0c 
>>>  DUMP: bad sblock magic number  <<<
  DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted. 

what is bad sblock magic number?

then i tried: mount /dev/vn0c /mnt
my_host:/home/ignacio/test# dump -0  -f /mnt  /home/ignacio/test/read/
  DUMP: Date of this level 0 dump: Thu Aug 31 17:02:23 2000
  DUMP: Date of last level 0 dump: the epoch
  DUMP: Dumping /home/ignacio/test/read/ to /mnt 
>>>  DUMP: bad sblock magic number <<<
  DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted. 

sure i'm making something wrong, and the man page of dump isn't the
beter help.
