I have a 40GB dump file of a ext3 partition that I am trying to restore. restore works for a while and then gets killed by the kernel oom. I have 1GB swap and 512MB ram. I tried bumping ram to 1GB but get the same results. I also tried in single user mode. I also tried from tape and from another partition. Can anyone suggest something else to try? I'm thinking of adding another drive to add more swap. Thanks, Dale
