[Bug 486408] [NEW] Transmission downloading the torrent data again after crash

[Sam K. Raju]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: transmission

I was downloading the debian dvd image (4.2 GB) using transmission 1.75 in ubuntu 9.10 (32 bit). The default download location for Transmission is ~/Downloads but I was downloading the data at a different location which is a separate partition of ext4 type. After downloading nearly 50% of the data, I got an error message: "Error:Read only file system". Somehow the filesystem become read only. So I closed Transmission and restarted the laptop and then started Transmission again. But this time Transmission started downloading the data from scratch at the default location i.e. ~/Downloads folder.
I tried to set the location of the torrent data (with 'Local data is already here' option) to previous location where it already downloaded 50% data but when it verified the data, it was only 2.64%. I lost rest of the data.

If any other information is required from my side, please let me know.
