I am running rdiff-backup as root indeed, both locally in the server
and in the laptop that I back up over SSH, as aside of my home
directories I also back up some system directories.

A bit of find sorcery (find -printf "%b %p\n" | sort -nr) tells me the
biggest file under my laptop's home directory is under 2 GB, so those
14 should be plenty, but I still tried custom temp directories
under /home and /backups, to no avail.

/backups has more free space than I said earlier because I deleted some
old increments just in case.

For whatever it's worth, I also tried writing to /backups and checked
its SMART status with smartctl, found nothing fishy. I also ran
"dumpe2fs -h" to make sure there were free inodes, as I found suggested
elsewhere.
