[SOLVED] refractasnapshot

I'm using a fresh and updated Deveuan xfce system.  Snapshot copies file system through to /var and then crashes, /var/log info below:-

cpio: kernel/x86/microcode/GenuineIntel.bin not created: newer or same age version exists
15540 blocks
+ zcat
+ cpio -i

gzip: stdin: not in gzip format
cpio: premature end of archive
+ exit_code=2
+ '[' 2 -ne 0 ']'
+ cpio -i
cpio: kernel/x86/microcode/GenuineIntel.bin not created: newer or same age version exists
15540 blocks
+ xzcat
+ cpio -i
xzcat: (stdin): File format not recognized
cpio: premature end of archive
+ exit_code=2
+ '[' 2 -ne 0 ']'
+ echo 'Decompression error'
+ exit 1

Any suggestions would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

Re: [SOLVED] refractasnapshot

There are two ways to solve this. One way is to remove  intel-microcode to make the snapshot and then add it back after you install the system somewhere. The better solution is to use the version that's in excalibur/ceres:

https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/poo … .0_all.deb
https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/poo … .0_all.deb

Download and install with dpkg -i refractasnapshot*.deb

Thank you for the prompt reply.  I am out of time today, will have a crack at it again in the morning.
