Hi Conrad,=0A=
=0A=
As mentioned in another thread ([1], [2]), I'm looking at dumping on=0A=
systems w/ AF-4Kn drives (on a fairly old version of FreeBSD).=0A=
Unfortunately, I'm not at all familiar w/ the process. I'm going to pick=0A=
at it a few more days, but will probably end up having to punt and dumpsys=
=0A=
onto a 512n or AF-512e device. But, since you are refactoring all this=0A=
code in -CURRENT anyway, I think it would be awesome if you could look to=
=0A=
the future and make it work w/o assuming that dump device block size is=0A=
DEV_BSIZE; it would be better to use the sector size, as returned (for=0A=
example) by ioctl(DIOCGSECTORSIZE).=0A=
=0A=
That won't help me now, but hopefully it will help everyone in the future.=
