I recently needed to restore a backup of all my VM's and dom0
configuration. The backup was on a USB hard drive (created using a
USB VM). I inserted the hard drive into a USB port owned by a USB VM,
and verified that the drive was mounted and that the Qubes backup was
visible to the USB VM. I then attempted to restore the backup from
the Qubes VM Manager. When I gave it the path to the backup file, I
got this error:

Premature end of archive while receiving backup header. Process
output:

No other information was displayed. I was able to successfully
restore the backup by connecting the hard drive to dom0, so I'm
certain that the backup file was fine. (But obviously I'd prefer not
to connect stuff to dom0.)

The only possibly relevant info I can think of is that the path to the
backup file had some spaces in it (in both the USB VM and dom0). I
tried placing the entire thing in double-quote marks, which made no
difference. I doubt this is the issue.
