You should look at bin/4683. I didn't # report this one, but this poster believes it is sparse file problem. I # don't think I'm backing up any sparse file on my filesystem (just user # data). I not only believe, I know it (see the difference between the two words ;)). Since tar -[blah]S[blah] worked splendid on the filesystem we were playing then, like, several hundreds of files, each having had thousands of hardlinks. # > on a 't' - and only once on a restore (but that as I've already said) was # > due to bad termination... # # That shouldn't happen. Do you have parity turned on both the controller # and the tape drive? That couldn't be the case, since, say, I didn't use tapes then.
