Mondo Backup hangs, have to hit ctl-c to complete

[FormosDerek]

The job runs fine, but hangs at this point:

=======================================================
disk-backup.cron - Begin Log 20090125 759
Released on Date 042608 Version 2.2.1
=======================================================
=======================================================
Now starting mondo. This will be a very long log!
Creating DVD sized ISO images has been choosen

After I see the ISOs in the cache/mindi directory I hit ctl-c in the putty session and everything else completes and the disk-backup.log is written. Too long to attach. Is this a known issue? Is there a fix?

Thank you very much.

Try using the CD-size setting. That fixed it for us.

Cool thanks, I'll try

I've noticed the same behavior when I first installed the Full Disk Backup script. This seem to occur when executing the cron job manually (CD or DVD size images - doesn't matter). When you let the cron job run on its own this shouldn't be happening. That script works form me very nicely with DVD-sized images - I wouldn't want to be burning 10+ CDs.

This week, I switched to softraid and started see this behavior.
I was able to manually backup once, but all other attempts failed with mondo hanging at the command prompt.

This morning, I woke-up to a mondo backup ran by the crontab. Strange
