Hew,
The traceback shows:
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/media/ terabyte/ rdiff-backup/ rdiff-backup- data/mirror_ metadata. 2009-02- 15T03:00: 24+11:00. snapshot. gz'
Were you not running rdiff-backup as the user who runs the backups? What are the permissions on that file, and the directories: /media/ terabyte/ rdiff-backup/ rdiff-backup- data/ and /media/ terabyte/ rdiff-backup/
thanks,
Andrew
