So the backup repository is being moved from fat32 to ext3? I think it should work if you just copy the whole repository over (using rsync, or rdiff-backup itself), then continue as normal. The new configuration won't need quoting, but rdiff-backup should continue quoting to preserve compatibility with the rest of the repository. -- Ben Escoto
