Hi all,
I'm experimenting with restoring older version of a large outlook file (9gb)
My command and the error output.
sudo rdiff-backup --restore-as-of=1467950584 /mnt/hda1/rdiffbackup.repositorys/address@hidden/Documents/Outlook\ Files/a
address@hidden /mnt/hda1/test

IOError: [Errno 28] No space left on device
I should note that I'm using microcore 3.8.4 Linux as the os.
I tried expanding my swap partition but that does not seem to help.
So I tried adding --tempdir and got following error
sudo rdiff-backup --restore-as-of=1467950584 /mnt/hda1/rdiffbackup.repositorys/address@hidden/Documents/Outlook\ Files/a
address@hidden /mnt/hda1/test --tempdir /mnt/hda1/tmp
Fatal Error: Wrong number of arguments given.
See the rdiff-backup manual page for more information.
I do have plenty of hard drive space on this partition.
Any suggestions welcome.
