[rdiff-backup-users] resuming initial backup

[tim]

hi,

i'm using a synology ds411 nas as backup target. the processor on this
device is very slow, so i don't get a transfer rate of more than 5 mb/s
when accessing it via ssh (cpu-bound). this makes backups for my 500GB
data partition rather painful.

i'd therefore like to interrupt and later resume the initial backup.
however rdiff-backup tells me:
Found interrupted initial backup. Removing...

... and then starts copying the files ... is there any way to resume an
initial backup?

thanks, tim
