Had a bit of time to spend on this and I did get the upgrade installed
without having to hack the scripts at all. I DID have to upgrade the
Encode package to 2.18 and that took care of it all and the install

Sorry, thought I was running 2.1.1, but checking again, the server is
actually running 2.1.2.p0. But, again, it's dieing at the top of the

The only way to backup the system volume is to run ntbackup as a
scheduled job to make a *.bkp file. Backuppc can back that up.
This is true for registry files and just about anything that gives you
an "access denied" when you try to open it.

Just put a symbolic link where your data folder is.
Shut down backuppc
move the entire data directory to the larger drive.
create a link where the data folder was that points to the new drive.
