Hello list,
I am doing something really simple. It worked twice and now fails for
an unknown reason. I am on MacOSX (Tiger) and I am simply making a
backup of a volume on an external Firewire drive. Here is the command
I am using (which went fine for the first 2 rsyncs). I tried to stop
some processes, I looked into the drives directory tree but nothing
seemed bad.
Any idea?
($:~)-> sudo rsync -Eavvb --delete --backup-dir="/Volumes/DATA 1/
rsync_bck" /Volumes/DATA/ "/Volumes/DATA 1"
Password:
backup_dir is /Volumes/DATA 1/rsync_bck/
