In my case I use the location /media/128gb_ultra/xbmc/backup/
The only special character is the underscore

Hmmm, and what's the filename? Are you using the default one, which is $(hostname)_xbian_image_$(date +%F).img

Anyway, you could run following command in ssh session and post output:

Terminal

sudo xbian-config xbiancopy imgdest '/media/128gb_ultra/xbmc/backup/$(hostname)_xbian_image_$(date +%F).img'

(don't forget the ', they are important)

I suppose you get -1 as output, which means no write access or folder structure does not exist
