Description

I installed mondo/mindi from the link provided in ticket #407 (thanks!)

I now have a bug fix and an error to report.

The following diff output corrects some syntax errors in /usr/sbin/mindi-bkphw, and also removes the dependency on package File::Basename (it's not easily installed on our system, and was only used in one place).

68c68 < print SCRIPT "$tool"); ---

print SCRIPT "$tool";

My target system has a single SATA drive with one partition (/dev/sda1) and is installed as a degraded RAID1. It has USB drivers compiled into the kernel. I have no problem creating a backup ISO file in the /tmp/backup directory, but when I try to backup to a USB stick on /dev/sdc I get the failure shown in the mondoarchive.log below.

I don't seem to have TICKET_APPEND permission, so here is the mondoarchive.log inline:

NB: Mondo logs almost everything, so don't panic if you see some error messages. Please read them carefully before you decide to break out in a cold sweat. Despite (or perhaps because of) the wealth of messages. some users are inclined to stop reading this log. If Mondo stopped for some reason, chances are it's detailed here. More than likely there's a message at the very end of this log that will tell you what is wrong. Please read it! -Devteam
