Trying rsync 3.0.5pre2 from ext3 on lvm2 on md to USB thumb drive still fails, but has a different message now:
rsync -rltpvxH --progress --delete /data/bls1.2/dvd/source . (lots of success, but then this) source/applications/inotify_tools/inotify-tools-3.13.tar.gz 32768 8% 0.00kB/s 0:00:00 rsync: writefd_unbuffered failed to write 4 bytes [sender]: Broken pipe (32) File-list index 0 not in 151 - 1874 (finish_hard_link) [generator] rsync error: protocol incompatibility (code 2) at rsync.c(647) [generator=3.0.5pre2] rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (9164 bytes received so far) [sender] rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(600) [sender=3.0.5pre2] Since the rsync is going from one place on the machine to another without using the network, I fail to understand how a protocol failure can occur.
