I figured out that it works if i restore not the whole partition, but one directory after another.But it is sllloooowwww... I looks to me like backuppc have a problem with creating checksums of many directorys or somthing like that. For example, when i select /usr/* to restore the problem happens.When i select /usr/bin/* the restore runs fine.And that everytime differend, it seems it depend on the deep of directorys. > > > > Mit freundlichen Gruessen | Kind regards > > > > Alexander Sobottka > > Greetings > Gerhard > > -- > Try rm -rf (_R_ead _M_ail _R_ealy _F_ast) > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
