Kickstart is an archive extraction script. If it extracts the backup archive, it does what it's supposed to do. I am unclear from your issue description if that happens or not.

I'm sorry, but the extraction doesn't work either. I'm attaching a screenshot.

Wait for the release of Kickstart 9.0.1 tomorrow. If you are in a rush, you can use the previous version instead.
