I run Mondo on several servers daily. This probably is mostly seen on one server, but I've seen it on another server too.

The first symptom of the problem is that /var is filling up. Why? Because since I run mondo via cron, the output is sent by e-mail. So a very big file can be found in /var/spool/clientmqueue.

If I check the content of this big file, I find this:

---promptstring---1--- CD-ROM device
---promptstring---2--- Please enter your CD-ROM's /dev device
---promptstring---Q---
--> ASSERTION FAILED: `device[0]!='\0''
at libmondo-devices.c:1631 in mount_CDROM_here

In /var/log/message, there is:

The command line is:

mondoarchive -e -Oi -9 -F -d /data/images/daily/`date +%A` -E "/data"

I also verify afterwards with:

/usr/sbin/mondoarchive -e -Vi -d /data/images/daily/`date +%A`

I have tried:

-adding the -e switch to avoid ejection -upgraded mondo and mindo to the latest release (.09).

The problem is still there...

Unable to correctly restore a root file system mounted (readonly or not) to e.g. /mnt/hda1 during backup phase - the wipe-restore will dump all data into a directory /mnt/hda1 instead of correct /

=> mondo/mindi really should have some kind of "chroot" option to allow making off-line backups (i.e. not live/"hot" backups)

We should generate packages for the new mdv2007.0
