      I have some backups of pfSense 1.2 made by dump utility and now want to downgrade 2.0 ALPHA by restoring one of them. But as I can see now,
      we have dump utility at /sbin directory, but no restore utility anywhere. Is it possible to include restore utility into snapshots?

        Heh you just need the config.xml and nothing more to restore.
        But you need the original 1.2 config.xml.

          I have no CD-ROM drive at that FW device now, so reinstall from CD and restore config.xml is theoretically possible but not so good solution for me.

          And without connection with my situation it is little bit strange and useless to have at OS only dump utility without restore utility.  :)
