There's nothing particularly magical about 'svnadmin hotcopy'. You can
do a hot-copy manually with plain old 'cp'.

1. cp -R repos repos-backup
2. cp repos/db/log* repos-backup/db/
3. svnadmin recover repos-backup

But it looks like David's *real* problem is running 'svnadmin recover'
on the original repository.
