Hmm.. and nobody has been able to reproduce your problem, right?
IIUC, currently you are suggesting that [on Windows], if you do
saveRDS(rawdata, file="rawdata.rds")
the resulting file is does not work with readRDS() on Linux.
What again are your R versions on the two platforms?
Could you dput() -- provide a (short if possible) version of rawdata where
that problem occurs ?
Best,
Martin
