Hi. I have a backup routine using rsync that runs from /etc/cron.daily.
I've been using this script for about a year with no problems until
recently.
Lately, I was having some intermittent trouble with hdb1 not being found
in the bios, but it's mounted now.
Below is my daily backup script and the output it reports (errors).
Any ideas on what's wrong and how to fix it would be appreciated.
Joe
