I am backing up with tar to a usb stick. It says I am out of space but I have up to ten more gigs.
Code:
user@machine:/media/robert/32GB$ tar -czvf archive.tar.gz /home/user >> stdout.txt 2> stderr.txt
gzip: stdout: No space left on device
tar: archive.tar.gz: Wrote only 8192 of 10240 bytes
tar: Child returned status 1
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
I still have over 10G of space left on my USB stick.
Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
