I tried that, I get different message, but it means about the same...

Changing volumes on pipe input? abort? [yn] n Changing volumes on pipe input? abort? [yn] y dump core? [yn] y Abort

I think this can happen if the filesystem changes in a certain way while being dumped - we think what happens is that the last inode it was expecting to backup is removed while the backup is in progress.

We have some patches to improve the situation with the bad error handling too, but I haven't committed them just yet.
