Hmm, not familiar with "dump" or "restore", but what I would suggest,
is when you can get some down time, boot from a live cd, and using a
dd/bzip2/split combo (or any other method of your choice), make a
backup image of the drive as well, If you get a new drive with the
same size/etc, it'll massively speed up the reinstall phase. When you
recover, all you need is cat/bunzip2/dd to do the restore. It's quite
a bit faster than a reinstall, especially if you compile your own apps
- it saved me a lot of time when my notebook died.
Really, using dump/restore is a much better method.
Stick with it.
old tools is usually the best tools.
