Rear hangs in the initramfs build step, and continues if process cfg3html is killed
Issue
-
The rear process hangs at the Collecting general system information step:
++ Log 'Collecting general system information (cfg2html)' ++ test 1 -gt 0 +++ Stamp +++ date '+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S ' ++ echo '2020-04-27 11:45:45 Collecting general system information (cfg2html)' 2020-04-27 11:45:45 Collecting general system information (cfg2html) ++ mkdir -p -v -m0750 /var/lib/rear/recovery/cfg2html ++ StopIfError 'Could not create '\''/var/lib/rear/recovery/cfg2html'\'' directory' ++ (( 0 != 0 )) ++ cfg2html -p -o /var/lib/rear/recovery/cfg2html
