Errors when svnadmin dumping a repository

Hi!

I have a repository on a remote server where I have ssh/rsync/etc. access
to.

I had a version of Subversion there, but the exact version is somewhere on
a damaged hard-disk. (which I can try to access if needed).

Now, I upgraded to the latest subversion but did not make dumps
beforehand. Afterwards I installed Svn 0.26.0 and 0.27.0 there and tried
to dump it with them. With 0.27.0 and 0.26.0 the dump start and then I
get:

<<<
svn: Malformed skeleton data
svn: Malformed node-revision skeleton
>>>

With the latest Subversion I get:

<<<
svn: Unsupported repository version
svn: Expected version '2' of repository; found version '1'
>>>

What gives? Which version of Subversion should I use to dump it?

svn recover says:

<<<
Acquiring exclusive lock on repository db.
Recovery is running, please stand by...svn: Berkeley DB error
svn: DB_NOTFOUND: No matching key/data pair found
>>>

I'm running it on a Linux.
