I'm starting to use dump here and I'm getting "bad magic number in super-block while opening filesystem" on my ReiserFS partitions. Does dump not support ReiserFS???

I am having a quite similar problem here (Texaco Brasil). I have a SuSE 6.3 working as Intranet Server and it is turned off every Saturday and started again on monday.

[SLE] Crashing system
by graham.cameron＠cognesis.com 01 Aug '00

01 Aug '00

I installed Linix 6.4 last week and have so far experienced 2 unexplained crashes. On both occasions the machine had no users logged on and was doing nothing special. Everything was frozen and the machine wouldn't ping. Nothing in the message log except a gap until I rebooted. Can anyone tell me what disagnostics/logs can I switch on in an attempt to trap what is going wrong next time it happens ?

[SLE] Installation woes...
by Surjit.Bains＠merhsbc.com 01 Aug '00

Hi all, I have a laptop which I wish to install SuSE onto I have a few problems.... firstly I should point out the physical constraints... the machine is a libretto 50ct pentium 75 (overclocked to 100) 16megs memory 810meg hd 1 pcmcia slot the floppy drive is external and plugs into the pcmcia port. I have a freecom cdrom drive which plugs into the parallel port or pcmcia port the floppy works when I first boot.... and the SuSE installation starts fine... however when it comes to changing to the modules disk the floppy drive no longer responds...and this leaves me stuck.... any help much appreciated...
