This is driving me nuts. When I do --itemize-changes, for that file, it says: >f+++++++++ panic-2012-02-01/home/darxus/0000_latest.jpg <@BasketCase> that shows the file isn't found < Darxus> Okay. I think I've pasted enough to show that it's there? <@BasketCase> it does seem strange I created some test files and verified that rsync -Ha --link-dest did correctly hard link those test files on that partition. # rsync --version rsync version 3.0.8 protocol version 30 # lsb_release -a Description: Ubuntu 11.10 Codename: oneiric It's an ext4 partition on a 4tb software raid0 composed of 2 2tb drives, which I just set up yesterday. Pretty sure none of that is relevant. -- "I'd rather be happy than right any day." - Slartiblartfast, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy http://www.ChaosReigns.com -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
