I have BackupPC (BUPC) running on an Ubuntu Gutsy (7.10) box. The Filesystem is on a 37 GB SCSI RAID array and the BUPC data is on a 160 GB external SATA drive. Later, that drive is to contain backups of a couple of Windows machines, and then I want to make copies of it for off-site storage. Not the best plan, perhaps, but _a_ plan.
When the localhost is backed up, it appears successful except for a lot of link errors. My searching so far seems to have led to the conclusion that these errors are because the SATA drive and the Filesystem drive use different file systems: ext3 and ext2. 1. Is that true? 2. If so, will making the external SATA drive ext2 solve the problem? 3. What alternative solutions are there? (E.g., moving /var/lib/Backuppc to the external drive? How?)
