Error while trying to recover my home using a live system

[Golddouble]

Describe the bug
As I can not recover my whole home-folder, when I am in my normal system, I have tried to recover my whole home-folder via live-system. When I was trying to recover my whole home this way, an error occurred.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
0. I have a separate partition for my root-folder and for my home-folder

1. I made a backup of my whole home-folder with Vorta.
2. I made a backup of my root-folder (but with home excluded) with the "live system creator of my Linux distribution" (not with Vorta)
3. I have destroyed my root-folder
4. I tried to recover my root-folder with the backup of the "live system creator of my Linux distribution" (see step 2.)
5. -> This way I have destroyed my home-folder.
6. I now tried to recover my home folder with Vorta. Here is what I did:
   a) I start my MX Linux live system. The live system is on my USB-Stick. It contains a snapshot of my root-folder, how it was on 2020-10-31. (see step 2.)
   b) My live system seems to have now a home-folder which name is "Golddouble". I guess it is not on a separate partition, it's just part of the live environment. And I have an other home-folder on the separate partition (see step 0 above), which name is also "Golddouble".
   c) While I am in this live system, I start Vorta. I "create" my existing repository. (from step 1.)
   d) I press extract
   e) as target I select "/"
   f) I start the recovery process
   g) An error occurred.
   

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: MX Linux 19.2 (Debian 10)
• Vorta version: 0.7.1
• Installed from: Flatpack

What can I do, to bring my home which is in the backup into my working system.

Thank you.

It says "No space left on device" there. 🙄 So either that or permissions? Read-only mount?

Thank you.
I made some thests now in my live system.

1. Saving a picture in my "Live system home": Works.
2. Saving a picture in my home which is on a separate folder: works

So can it be, that Vorta really tries to recover the archive in the home of my live system instead of the home in the separate partition? I have only 8 GB RAM the home, but my archive is over 100 GB.

I found out now, that the path to my home on the separate partition (where the archive should be recovered) is:
/media/Golddouble/homeMX/Golddouble/

So I guess the archive will not try to recover itself in
/media/Golddouble/homeMX/Golddouble/
When I select "/" as target?

Is there any chance to recover my archive directly into
/media/Golddouble/homeMX/Golddouble/
?

... instead of
/home/Golddouble/

So can you please tell me, what do I have to select as target?

(When I made the backup some days ago, I had selected this as source in this repository:
/home/Golddouble )

Thank you.

[Golddouble]

the source of my backup in working system was
/home/Golddouble/

What exactly must I do, to recover the content of "/home/Golddouble/" of my archive directly into the live system folder
/media/Golddouble/homeMX/Golddouble/<my content>

Or does Vorta really not support this functionality and it is really impossible to recover this archive directly into
/media/Golddouble/homeMX/Golddouble/

?

Thank you.

I need this functionality, because I have to recover my whole home (and not only a part of it) with the help of a live USB Linux system.
