problem with GRMLCFG (label of a disk), config files in grml's home directory and rsync

Hi friends,
I am using grml 1.1 in Parallel Desktop under MacOSX. Everything looks good except that I have a small problem.
Here are the steps to produce:
* ALT+F4 * grml $ grml-x fvwm * In fvwm: I started FireFox, Dillo, and etc * exit fvwm * ALT+F1 * # save-config -all * # mount /dev/hda /mnt/GRMLCFG * # mv config.tbz /mnt/GRMLCFG * # reboot
After rebooted, it shows me this error:
--
rsync: failed to set times on "/home/grml/.dillo": Operation not permitted (1) rsync: failed to set times on "/home/grml/.mozilla": Operation not permitted (1) rsync: failed to set times on "/home/grml/.mozilla/firefox": Operation not permitted (1) rsync: failed to set times on "/home/grml/.mozilla/firefox/vitkv6oh.default": Operation not permitted (1) rsync: recv_generator: mkdir "/home/grml/.mozilla/firefox/vitkv6oh.default/chrome" failed: Permission denied (13) *** Skipping everything below this failed directory *** rsync: mkstemp "/home/grml/.dillo/.bm.txt.G7cQgH" failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: mkstemp "/home/grml/.mozilla/.appreg.ikKPRG" failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: mkstemp "/home/grml/.mozilla/firefox/.profiles.ini.cGVwDN" failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: mkstemp "/home/grml/.mozilla/firefox/vitkv6oh.default/.bookmarks.html.o19FpU" failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: mkstemp "/home/grml/.mozilla/firefox/vitkv6oh.default/.components.ini.CVFr30" failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: mkstemp "/home/grml/.mozilla/firefox/vitkv6oh.default/.defaults.ini.k7SGH7" failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: mkstemp "/home/grml/.mozilla/firefox/vitkv6oh.default/.mimeTypes.rdf.OZdbme" failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: mkstemp "/home/grml/.mozilla/firefox/vitkv6oh.default/.search.rdf.WG4D3k" failed: Permission denied (13) rsync: failed to set times on "/home/grml/.dillo": Operation not permitted (1) rsync: failed to set times on "/home/grml/.mozilla": Operation not permitted (1) rsync: failed to set times on "/home/grml/.mozilla/firefox": Operation not permitted (1) rsync: failed to set times on "/home/grml/.mozilla/firefox/vitkv6oh.default": Operation not permitted (1) rsync error: some files could not be transferred (code 23) at main.c(977) [sender=2.6.9]

These directories are the directories created by grml user before the reboot time.
It seems to me that whatever config files inside grml's home directory has been modified, after save-config and placed it in GRMLCFG disk, then rebooted, these error will come.
Any idea?

I've added this to our BTS: http://bts.grml.org/grml/issue578 and will take care of it.
Thanks for reporting!
