Chris, most likely the memory error would be from the PC itself.Im no expert on this but feel that since knoppix is running in memory on the PC at some point it runs out of memory for the copying portion.Originally Posted by chrislynch8
Hi,
We do do work for liquidators and we collect all the data in an office. We have been using Knoppix to boot into the PC/Server and copy the entire HHD to a USB External Harddrive. We are now testing the use a a NAS box. In the Knoppix Live cd we can mount the NAS share and we are using rsync to copy the localdrive to the NAS box. We are getting a "Cannot Allocate Memory (12)" error after a while.
What does this refer to exactly. Is it the memory on the PC or would this be the memory on the NAS box???
Would anyone have any idea????
Rgds
Chris

Chris, What is the OS on the NAS box? I guess it is Windows.Originally Posted by chrislynch8
If it is the case, check the Windows side from the Event Viewer, look for the srv related errors. You may find something like this:
If this is the case, you just hit a bug from the Windows side. The error message is misleading since the error is from the smbclient side.Code:The Server's configuration parameter "IRPStackSize" is too small for the server to use a local device. Please increase the value of this parameter.
One of the quick fix you may try is to reboot the Windows and re-try. Most of the case, it will solve the problem.
If not, check out the Microsoft site and see if they have any remedy.
