HELP! Problems with Mondo Archiver

I'm running Centos 5 and have compiled the latest and greatest version of Mondo Archiver.

I can run the back up manually by just running mondoarchiver with no arguments and answering all of the questions. My problem is that when I try to run it from a batch file so I can use run it automatically from cron I have all kinds of problems. Currently I'm getting

'SIGABRT signal received from OS
Abort - probably failed assertion. I'm sleeping for a few seconds so you can rea

and it stops there, I have to kill the process to get back to a prompt.

This is happening during the verify part of the process.

here is the batch file:

Code:
#!/bin/sh
/bin/mt -f /dev/st0 rewind
/usr/local/sbin/mondoarchive -Ou -0 -d /dev/st0 -N -e -K 99 -p "mondoboot" -s 20g -W
/bin/mt -f /dev/st0 rewind
/usr/local/sbin/mondoarchive -Vu -0 -d /dev/st0 -e
/bin/mt -f /dev/st0 rewind

The reason I'm not using the -W is just for testing purposes and the -u and -s was just to see if I got a different error from the -t but I'm getting the same error.


Here is the last lines from the mondoarchive.log file
