Hello Radoslaw, I have considered in the past applying for someone, but after a lot of thought, I decided not to try. The main reason is that to properly mentor someone like that takes a lot of work, and I am already working too many hours. With Bacula Systems, I manage a small team of people in

What about mt setblk and defblksize? If you do get it working again, then it would be interesting to try dd again to see if the first block really is only 1k. __Martin > On Thu, 21 Feb 2013 13:48:54 +, GILES Stephen said: > > After continued testing with other volumes they all read fin
