Awww crap, I went to try out backrest for restic to backup an external drive to infomaniak's Swiss Backup service, and I can get the connection working to them. That's fine.
However, the drive I wanna backup is formatted as ExFat and I just upgraded to Sonoma last night, and apparently ExFat is fucked on sonoma, so restic can't read the files
I can read them fine from finder, and from terminal, but the Docker container for backrest cannot. Just gives lstat errors and shit.
Apparently I should've used APFS for the drive instead, because ExFAT is apparently outdated? I already had to redo my mac backups over the past 48 hours because of MacOS Journaled vs APFS problems.
Now I have a problem though: My drive has 1.4 TB of non-recoverable media on it, and I don't have 1.4 TB free on my mac to move the media to my machine and then back to the backup drive after reformatting it.
Is my only option going to be buying another β¬200 drive? I certainly hope not.
