Hi
I am have problems creating a backup using the DAR2 contrib
I have been reading the Dar2 topics in this forum but haven't been able to find a hint that I can use as a solution
From what I have read DAR2 is breaking partway though the process (which I am guessing is why USB is left mounted) but I have no idea why. Below I have included as much info as i can.
I have reinstall, run the update, installed dar2 then tried again but the result is the same.
If you can please Help
I have stripped down the included selection, I did this as a test but the results where the same as the default selection
