Dump examines files in a filesystem, determines which ones need to
|
|
be backed up, and copies those files to a specified disk, tape or
|
|
other storage medium. Subsequent incremental backups can then be
|
|
layered on top of the full backup.
|
|
|
|
The restore command performs the inverse function of dump; it can
|
|
restore a full backup of a filesystem. Single files and directory
|
|
subtrees may also be restored from full or partial backups in
|
|
interactive mode.

You might want to read this post by Linus:

Slackware's tar package already has rmt, therefore this SlackBuild
|
|
excludes it.
|
|
|
|
This SlackBuild disables the SELinux functionality and dependency.
|
|
|
|
Note that Slackware comes with another "restore" command:
|
|
/usr/sbin/restore The package built by this SlackBuild however will
|
|
install: /sbin/restore Thus you might need to call the dump package
|
|
restore by its full path.
