I've made this change to iwjbackup.txt: +You have to create the file /var/lib/chiark-backup/last-tape +containing the id of a tape; this helps backup-checkallused know where +to start iterating over tapes. Any tapeid will do. (But don't make +it the same as the one you want to back up to first.) Ian.
