Hard to tell what's actually wrong with just the bottom snippet.  But there
was some sort of error from find, buffer and/or afio.

You need to scroll up in the log and find the problem, or turn verbose off

Use this: (the prune key is the filesystem not the set name)

 $set{'jonas'} = "/mnt/barton_jonas";

 $prune{'/mnt/barton_jonas'} = "musik film";
