OK, I'm pretty certain this is actually an issue with my hard drive, but
I just want to check to make absolutely certain that nothing Wine does
could cause this problem.
I have just set about getting a regular backup of my PC (yes, I know,
consider my wrists to be well and truly slapped for taking nearly two
years to get around to this) and am trying to use rsync to copy files to
a Western Digital Passport USB HDD. However, when I try the following
command
rsync -a /home/david/ /media/Portable/backup/
it chokes when it gets to the .wine folder - I/O error on every single
file and folder within .wine - trying a simple
cp -r /home/david/ /media/Portable/backup/
has the same effect. This is repeatable and only .wine is affected -
which is why I wonder if it could be something about the way Wine is set
up. Could *anything* wine does *possibly* cause this?
Many thanks, in advance,
David Shaw
