Public bug reported:
roland@roland-desktop:~$ lsb_release -rd
Description: OS/4 OpenLinux 13.7
Release: 12.04
backintime-kde 1.0.8-1
Expected unattended backup to work.
What happened was hard system crash
The problem appears to be errors thrown by rsync or one of the other
utilities it uses when running as a cron job. When run interactively
all that happens is the errors get written to the log. The "scheduled"
job must be running at higher priv.
Problem occurred when target was a directory on an NTFS esata drive.
Recommended solution is to have the front end actually check the
partition type of the target directory and warn user so they select an
ext3 partition as target.
