thanks for chiming in. Do you (or Wayne) think that given the state  
of rsync 3.0 _right now_, it's more promising to pursue that or rsync  
2.x? Keep in mind also that the number of files we're dealing with in  
our OS images is very significantly (a magnitude or two) smaller than  
a normal UNIX desktop. We have a total of 1GB flash, and our target  
for OS size is <=150MB initially and eventually <=100MB. I expect  
most OS updates would change a relatively small percentage of that  
and suspect rsync would deal with it, even on our machines, without  
any problem.

Cheers,
