Hi there Felipe, you are correct. I should have read the manual better. I missed the dar part. root@thomas-laptop:/home/thomas# hurestore --version GNOME hurestore 0.0.1 root@thomas-laptop:/home/thomas# hurestore --help Usage: hurestore [OPTION...] --load-modules=MODULE1,MODULE2,...

The command hangs. Maybe it is the cause of the segmentation fault in the gui. As I know have the debug sym's (for dar) I will do the Backtrace again, in case people want to repair it still. First let's get my data back. root@thomas-laptop:/home/thomas# dar -V dar version 2.3.8, Copyright (C) 2002-2052 Denis Corbin Long options support : YES Using libdar 4.4.3 built with compilation time options: Libz compression (gzip) : YES Libbz2 compression (bzip2) : YES Strong encryption : YES New Blowfish implementation: YES Extended Attributes support: YES Large files support (> 2GB): YES ext2fs NODUMP flag support : YES Special allocation scheme : YES Integer size used : 64 bits Thread safe support : YES compiled the Jul 2 2008 with GNUC version 4.3.1 dar is part of the Disk ARchive suite (Release 2.3.8) dar comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `dar -W'.
