RE: [rdiff-backup-users] Metadata exists but no associated files

Nope, csh isn't there. I'll try and find out why it didn't go through.
/mnt/backups_mp/system is an smbfs partition (in reality it's a remote
NTFS).

Well, check out /mnt/backups_mp/system/bin.  Does it contain 'csh'? If
not, then for some reason the initial backup just skipped this file (a
more serious problem than the incremental backup failing).  BTW, what
kind of filesystem is /mnt/backup_mp/system?
