I have been using Linux Mint for several years and Debian before that.
I feel comfortable with the command line.
I bought a Lenovo 300e Chromebook over a year ago and have learned to like it a lot including that Linux on Chrome OS is a bit different.
I searched this forum for my topic but did not find what I was looking for.
My Chromebook Linux terminal freezes when I try to use rsync, I have waited as long as 30 minutes for an action. On my other Linux Mint machines I use rsync to backup both my local laptop drives as well as the Google drives of my wife and myself. Therefore, rsync is very useful and important.
This is my rsync syntax:
Code:
rsync -av ~/Documents/File.png /mnt/chromeos/removable/SDCard/Document
sending incremental file list
File.png
After this is just stops...
I have not yet tried a powerwash, as it is a pain to get things back to where I want them.
When the terminal stops, I can do Ctrl-C to terminate the process. Unfortunately, once I terminate the rsync process using Ctrl-C, various other commands such as cd, ls, etc. also stop functioning. When that happens they do NOT respond to Ctrl-C and I have to force close the terminal window.
If I Ctrl-C after rsync and restart the Linux container with sudo reboot OR shutdown the terminal window opens for a brief moment but then quits with this error message:

If I shutdown and restart my chromebook I can then again do ALL of the following without error:
Code:
cd Documents/
cp ~/Documents/File.png ~/Desktop
cp ~/Documents/File.png /mnt/chromeos/MyFiles/Downloads
cp ~/Documents/File.png /mnt/chromeos/removable/SDCard/
cp ~/Documents/File.png /mnt/chromeos/removable/USBHDD/
However, again, when I try to use rsync to move the same file as the cp command above, the command just never completes:
I tried to find something in the following log areas but I did not find anything which made sense to me:
file:///var/log/
chrome://system/#logs
I am uncertain where else I may find any log information and if I do what to do with it.
If anyone knows of a fix for this problem or a comment if I am doing something incorrect, I would be grateful for your suggestions. Thank you
