[Sunhelp] sunos 4.1.3

[Habib M.]

i am using the:
dump 0ubf 126 /dev/nrst4 /
dump 0ubf 126 /dev/nrst4 /usr
dump 0ubf 126 /dev/nrst4 /var
.
.
I see that is asking me for the change of tapes. I am in
tape #4. I am not sure if it really is correct. Tapes get
that full that fast.
I think it is a 5GB tape.
