Ok, problem is that I need to organise another hard disk for that. ;-) I tried restore for a test run, it gave a lot of messages about wrong compression length. I found some discussion about that, but I don't know if its indicates an actual error or not? I did use compression on the drive. Is there some guarantee that the data restore restores are correct or is it just a I try what I can do...
