As a followup to my previous mail.

Does amanda impose a limit on disk size???

Hi list,

I'm experiencing the same problem.

My linux dist. is RH 8.0 kernel 2.4.18-19.8.0.
tar 1.13.25-8.

amdump was ok. amverify OK.
But when I ran amrecover, everything went fine until the extract step.
amanda seems to freeze.

Here's the result of amidxtaped and amrecover, respectively:
