[comp.sys.mips] 8mm EXAByte Drive

NB: any direct replies should be sent to the address below, not to the
    poster please!

  We just received an 8mm EXAByte drive for evaluation on our 3240.
Can anyone tell me what values I should be using for the dump.ffs s and
d parameters ?  If I do not specify them, dump.ffs tells me that it needs
approximately 0.3 tapes to back up  /  (which is only 22 Mb !).
Also, is it possible to dump several filesystems on one tape ? How ?
