Some more feedback here. I've just changed my partition layout to get
more space on the root partition, and now I wanted to restore the
backup I made using the "Backup and Restore" utility. When restoring,
I get the error: "Restore Failed. Error from System: No such file or
directory". The detailed error message is: "tar: Couldnt remove old
file: Is a directory".

The reason that it failed is as follows: I removed
/home/root/Documents, and made it a symlink to /media/hdd/Documents.
When trying to restore the symlink, it couldn't remove the old 'file',
since it was trying to remove the directory Documents. Removing
'Documents' by hand allowed me to restore the backup.
