Bootable media build #6597 fails

Thread needs solution

My progress report.
First, all types of backup using #5519 do their work.
With #6597 i had following results
Backups without validate are ok.
Backups with validate to internal hdds are ok.
Backups with validate to external hdds USB2.0 and USB 3.0 start backup, validate starts and hangs with periodically blinking driveled on external medias.
Cancelled validate after 1 hour. BACKUP unusable, build dangerous when backing up without validate.
Can someone confirm the scenario?
I'm very horrified.

Hello Manfred,

Thank you for posting. I will do my best to assist you.

I would like to ask you for additional questions in order to get to the bottom of the issue.

If you use build 5519 bootable media, the validation does not get stuck if I understood correctly. Can you try canceling validation and let me know what happens?

In what way is the backup unusable? Have you tried validating the backup created with build 6597 from the bootable media in Windows?

Do you mind collecting a system report from the bootable media and sending it to me?

Looking forward to your reply and if you have additional questions please let me know.

Thank you.

The problem seems to be solved. After a lot of trial and error I changed all USB 3.0 cables, reinitialized USB devices in devicemanager, downloaded bootable media once more and got a functional Image. Recovery to a second machine was ok. Only a little problem is, backup progessmark goes to the end of the visual indicator, validate shows only a little piece.
This is not a full solution as I don't know what was going wrong before.
Thanks
