[CentOS] Another Tar stopper

Well, I have been busy getting child #4 off on her way to college 
(joining #2).  So now it is quite with just the 2 youngest and I can get 
work done again!.

tar stops as follows:

/root/.nautilus/metafiles/x-nautilus-desktop:%2F%2F52F.xml
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors.

I thought perhaps this is some file locked becuase I was running from a 
terminal session in gnome.

So I switched over to init 3 and ran the tar process from the text session.

Still got this error.

How do I figure out what is wrong and how do I find any similar 
show-stoppers?
