Hi all,
Im trying to restore a backup from our main sme server on a clean install,
i install sme 8, run all updates, mount the removable disk so it is visible and i can view set1 set2 and set3.
however, when in the console in the backup and restore option, it states it cannot find the removable disk, /media/nolabel is not available, i have set the mount to be the same name as this and still it will not find my backups.
to get round this, i restored the /home/e-smith/db from one of the sets of my backup. using dar -x /media/backupdisk/"severname"/set1/fullxxxxxxxx -N -R / -w -g home/e-smith/db,
this allows me to view my backups in the console and select one of the sets, however when i try and restore, it process through then spits out the error, journal commit I/O error.
I understand that the way to get the console to see my backup is not the most ideal way, and very likely to be the wrong way.
any help or advice on the error i am receiving would be a huge help.
Kind Regards,
