I do a very similar thing, but I use the method of having cron execute a
separate backup script (so I can't really say what is wrong with yours).
So my crontab file looks like:
5 4 * * * /root/backup > $HOME/cronlog 2>&1
And then the file backup looks like:
rm /root/cronlog
cd /home
find . -mount | cpio -pvum /mnt/backup/home
This works fine for me.
