I also got similar corruption problems with Amayui Castle Meister, for the record. It announced the file size of 4GB but it only had 3GB or so available for download (trying to send a 206 would stop after that).
chrisb Usually corruption issues like these are caused by filesystem misbehaving. A quick example (although not applicable in this case) is if you are using an ext4 filesystem (which has an anti-fragmentation logic) and suddenly cut the HDD power supply. Usually servers use RAID, though, so it should not fail even if such thing were to happen - unless, of course, if you decide to use
dd
or any similar technique which copies by blocks.
Would be hard to detect either way.
In layman terms, "possibly a filesystem failure, usually caused when doing a deep copy from an HDD to another, backup restoration errors, defrag error or a severe incident". That is probably what I would bet on, anyway.
By the way, I am unable to download anything from Nopy... Getting a fancy console message every time I try:
