kn-backup.sh wont recognise ext2 partition
Hi all,
I've installed knoppix7 to a 16Gb USB memory stick (/dev/sdb1) which I have been using for approx 12 months. Up till now, whenever I make changes to my system I manually backup knoppix-data.img to my HHD, however, I have just discovered kn-backup.sh on http://www.wp-schulz.de/.
I downloaded sh-backup.sh and installed to /usr/sbin. Using another 16Gb USB memory stick (which incidentally was formatted with knoppix7 on it) I have created a second 8Gb primary partition formatted to ext2 using gparted. When I run "sudo testdisk /list" I get the follow:
Code:
Disk /dev/sda - 15 GB / 14 GiB - CHS 14786 64 32
Partition Start End Size in sectors
1 * FAT32 LBA 3 60 1 14786 39 32 30274944 [KNOPPIX]
Warning: Bad ending sector (CHS and LBA don't match)
Disk /dev/sdb - 15 GB / 14 GiB - CHS 14900 64 32
Partition Start End Size in sectors
1 * FAT32 LBA 3 60 1 8712 63 32 17836160 [KNOPPIX2]
Bad relative sector.
2 P Linux 8713 0 1 14899 63 32 12670976 [Backups]
I presume the warnings above regarding CHS and LBA is because knoppix formats these disks according to MiB and not cylinder boundaries.
When I run kn-backup and select "Backup whole persistent memory" I get the following error: "Cannot find any partition to use!"
I have read all relevant info on http://www.wp-schulz.de/ and can't see where I am going wrong...please help!
