Your paths look unix but tortoise is windoze so I assume you have a linux server of some flavour running subversion behind apache. I assume you did your backup / restore on the server then accessed the repo from a windoze client.
As a first stab in the dark: have you checked / set the proper permissions for the apache user on the new directories (/my/svn/backup/repo-7)? Are all the required directories (as created by svnadmin when you create a new repo) there? I'm not sure what hot-backup does as I've never used it, does it backup the extra directories? ~ mark c
