you're doing restore to the root of a machine which is live?

is it possible that your dest machine has a running process which created 
a file in that directory while rdiff-backup was trying to remove it?

i'm kind of skeptical of trying to restore to / on a live machine... but 
maybe you've taken it down to single user and brought up the networking 
interface... just curious.
