Steve,
Error -36, in my experience, has always meant that a media problem occurred
on the source volume. This has never been shown to be isolated to a specific
type of file. Error -36 is an Apple-defined error being returned by the OS
itself when Retrospect tries to copy a specific file.
Try verifying the media on your source disk using a disk utility or the
formatting program you used to format your hard drive. For example, if it's
an Apple-formatted hard drive, use Apple Drive Setup's "Test Disk" command
in the Function menu. Disk First Aid is usually not helpful in this case
because it only checks for directory problems and does not check your media.
