Hello

I had 15 minutes between db2bak and first bak2db attempt.

I removed the fedora-ds rpm (and deleted /opt/fedora-ds directory) and after
that, installed fds and tried to restore, no luck.
I tried this about 10 times, then I did not do anything for three days and
today I reinstalled fsd, and was able to restore the backup.

So, no problem anymore, time will heal they say :)

Kimmo
