Hi, I'm using CWM 6.0.1.9 on Android 4.2! I've just tried to make a backup with more or less 7GB free... The backup was going very slow, so i doubt something was going wrong. It ended with an error, because couldn't backup /data; i imagines so that he filled all the empty space and, reboot in android confirmed me that with several errors of low storage.
I started to look for where the backup were gone but... I deleted the /data/media/clockworkmod/ and the /data/media/0/clockworkmod/ but... Why it was "looping" on the backup?

im using the latest CWM Touch Recovery, and with every 4.2 rom flash, it's creating another /0 folder. What can i do to stop this??
FWIW i did a full wipe before putting 4.2 and CWM 6.0.1.9

koush changed the default format back to tar in the "mr1-staging" test branch of his github.

This and a couple other nice changes haven't made their way over to the main source yet so we can't make Jenkins builds with it, but hopefully soon, and hopefully a new revision number too.

This isn't supposed to be an issue in this version of CWM either. Wonder if it has something to do with a full wipe after 4.2? Apparently there is a marker file put down in /data by 4.2 to tell subsequent factory resets not to migrate the files again. I wonder if something happened to that file?

My thoughts exactly. I'm kinda guessing a format might remove it.

So if that's the case, of course still speculation at this point, then what would the workaround be if you need to wipe?

BTW, I still can't find anyone who knows the name of that marker file.
