Hi,

I haven't checked your logs in detail, but on a first look it looks 
quite similar to a problem I was having after debian upgrade. Take a 
look at this email:

https://sourceforge.net/p/mondo/mailman/message/37186486/

There is a patch attached which resolved the issue for me. Give it a 
shot, maybe it will help you too.

Regards

Tomas

Hi Bruno etal,

I hope that you are all well. I have not been on the forum asking 
questions for a long time but the subject line says it all. But I have 
been following the forum

I have upgraded to Xubuntu 22.04.1 LTS from 20.04 LTS I do not upgrade 
until  .1 version is released.

The 1st system I needed to increase the size of the file in the 
mindi.conf  file so that I did not fail with  no free space error

EXTRA_SPACE= 786432    #12 x 65536 (2^16)

This generated the 1st ISO with the size > the 3.9GB i.e. larger than a 
DVD but I assumed that I could convert to a bootable USB to rebuilt if 
necessary.

The 2nd system I needed to increase to 16 x 65536 still an error at the 
beginning no free space.

2A) I noticed that when backing up on another system that space was 
being used on the root drive during the Mindi creation. Therefore using 
GParted, I increased the size of the root partition to generate more 
free space from 5GB to 11GB. This was quite laborious because I needed 
to reduce of one partition, then the extended partition, then move /home 
to create more space for /root

2B) since the error seemed to occur during the beginning of setting up 
the Mindi ISO part, I thought that I would use the /W option in order to 
not create the mindi.ISO as part of backup. But this failed with the 
same error.

So I am wondering where do I go from here. I do not want to upgrade my 
personal nfs-server which  used as an archival server because I would 
loose all access to the ability to make backups.

I am attaching 3 files

mindi-conf.txt i.e.1st system

mindi-conf-mcg.txt 2nd system

the log file the latest log file as tar.gz

If you require, I can supply copies of the appropriate script files that 
I have generated so that I have the ability run backups weekly , 
automatically using cron.

I have other questions but they can hold to later.

Best Wishes

Jim Robinson
