Hi All, I still consider myself to be a newbie to leaf and Linux in general and found myself corrupting files on a CF Disk.
I had to learn the hard way so I thought I would share my woes. I have been working with Troy Aden (Thanks Troy) getting beta 4 to work on CF as described by Peter Mueller (Thanks Peter for the How-TO) . My .02 NEVER BACKUP PACKAGES WITH DESTINATION DEVICE (hda1) MOUNTED! This will corrupt the CF disk. I would like to suggest a modification to the backup script that will check for and automatically umount any device that is destined to be a backup location before attempting to write the backup. It took me two days to figure out what I was doing wrong. Thanx for the great mail-list and Thanx to all those helping us newbies out.
