Using 6.0-RELEASE
I'm trying to use a USB removable drive as a dump device.

The issue is when I try to dump to the device:
# dump 0uafL /dev/da0 /
I think this is telling dump to treat /dev/da0 as a normal file, which
it isn't. it makes sense to say /dev/[your_tape_device] , as you don't
dump to a file in the tape, but rather to the tape itself (AFAIK)
The same thing happens with:
# dump 0uafL /backup /
try something like
dump 0uafL /backup/`date +%Y%m%H`-0.dump /
