savebackup and restoredata

I am new to FreeSBIE and want to make sure I understand savebackup and restoredata before I move further into the OS's use. I am significantly understanding of FreeBSD. I am using FreeSBIE latest release.

I created the file /etc/backup.lst and in that file listed /usr/local/ as the directory I wanted to backup.

I then mounted a cruzer micro USB flash drive successfully using (and can read/write):

mount -t msdos /dev/da0s1 /mnt/dos.1

I then ran: 'savebackup da0s1' and got the following error:

"Can't open the input file /mnt/FreeSBIE/freesbie.2008.0127.0158.tar : No such file or directory
Done
umount : /mnt : Not a file system root directory"
