Using a non-existing backup method fails in recovery (e.g. REQUEST_RESTORE instead of REQUESTRESTORE) #159
Description
I'm trying to restore a CentOS 5.8 system using this config:
RESCUE birch:~ # less /etc/rear/local.conf
# sample local configuration
# Create Rear rescue media as ISO image
OUTPUT=ISO
# optionally define (non-default) backup software, e.g. TSM, NBU, DP, BACULA
BACKUP=REQUEST_RESTORE
# the following is required on older VMware VMs
MODULES_LOAD=( vmxnet )
# to see boot messages on the serial console (uncomment next line)
# KERNEL_CMDLINE="console=tty0 console=ttyS1"
The ISO boots fine and the partitions are set up. But at the very end when it looks likes it's going to chroot /mnt/local to install the initrd it crashes like this:

If I do a complete backup using rsync to a NAS it's fine.
