No. The dump command dumps any UNIX like file system, any file system
based on inodes. The one shipped with Linux is the GNU/Free Software
Foundation dump, which apparently can only dump ext2/ext3 file systems.
It would probably be more accurate to say that most filesystems have a
"dump" program that supports them. "The" dump command on Linux only
supports ext2/3. ReiserFS, for example, has no dump command at all. XFS
uses "xfsdump", which isn't packaged in FC5.
Well, since you want to pick nits, "Linux" has no "dump" at all,
since it's just a kernel. So you're wrong.
As I said, the one which ships with Fedora Core is the GNU/Free
Software Foundation dump which supports ext2 and ext3, and this
is accurate.
GNU is not Linux.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
