It's going to be info.rfw in the backup/00000001 directory if you're 
not using the raidfile stuff. If you are, delete the info.rfw file, and 
the old info.rf files will be sufficient to work properly. Obviously if 
you run with raidfile, things are much more reliable.

No. There should be, I suppose. I could make the housekeeping 
regenerate it if it gets an error reading it. It will have to guess the 
limits, though.
