Hi,

On one of our NeXTstations we are getting consistant dump errors on
the internal disk.  The error from DUMP looks like this:-
  DUMP: dumping (Pass III) [directories]
  DUMP: dumping (Pass IV) [regular files]
  DUMP: Found FASTLINK inode with di_size too big
  DUMP: NEEDS ATTENTION: Do you want to attempt to continue?: ("yes" or "no") no
  DUMP: The ENTIRE dump is aborted.

Can anyone give me a clue as to whats causing the problem and how I
get rid of it.  Fsck does not cure this - the disk is clean!

[Following question: the reliability of this machine has dropped -
presumably this would explain why??]

	Nigel.
