:(

It sounds like "riocp -b" (which reads all of the backup files and creates
the database from them) did in fact corrupt the DB, which caused riocp to
segfault when trying to read it the second time.  Ouch.  Sorry.

I've personally not had that happen and did riocp -b a bunch of times, but
I guess I wasn't "lucky."  However, I did experience the reboot problem 
(due to a corrupted filesystem) before:

You have to use the firmware upgrader to reformat the disk, and no, there's
no way to do this in Linux that I know of at the moment.  Did you get an 
OOPS by any chance in your kernel logs?

Possibly, I'll try to re-create it here on my test karma.
