Buvt Known Issues

Running "rsync -rtzil --delete --files-from=[fileList] [source] [target]" makes the whole computer freeze ?!?!

This is of course a rsync problem

Nothing written to the systemlog.

The caps lock light is blinking which from what I've googled means kernel panic.

The file list has about 30000 files, and the crash occured once after about 12500 files have been written and once after about 5500 files were written (so I assume it's not a specific file that caused the crash).

The target side is empty

The sending sides files are stored on an NTFS drive (I don't know if that plays any role)

I've confirmed the problem on two computers one Manjaro and one EndeavourOS.

It's the "sending" side that freezes (not the receiving) (when syncing to another host (confirmed once))


How is rsync is used by buvt? See more here.
