Doesn't look like an issue with rdiff-backup. Apart from power supply, I would consider failing fan(s) or a local network problem (cable?). After those I guess it is motherboard or CPU. You could try installing lm_sensors, might help diagnose a fan (temperature) or power supply (voltage) issue. _______________________________________________ rdiff-backup-users mailing list at rdiff-backup-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/rdiff-backup-users Wiki URL: http://rdiff-backup.solutionsfirst.com.au/index.php/RdiffBackupWiki
