Package: tar Version: 1.19-3 Severity: normal
Backing up to an LS120 (Laser Servo) diskette drive: cd ~/backupthislot tar cMF /dev/hdd ./ This will perform the backup and periodically ask the user to change diskette, until the backup completes. Restoring from the backup: cd ~/restoredirectory tar xMf /dev/hdd ./ The first diskette restores normally. A prompt appears to insert the next disk in sequence. When the next disk is inserted, an error occurs: "This volume is out of sequence". The error is consistent, and there is no way to restore the contents of the backup from beyond the first diskette. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24-1-486 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages tar depends on: ii libc6 2.7-10 GNU C Library: Shared libraries tar recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
