Hi guys!

When trying to back up my system with rdiff-backup (everything except proc, 
tmp, mnt, media and distfiles) I get a lot of errors like this:

"UpdateError sys/block/sda/range Updated mirror temp 
file /backup/gentoo64/sys/block/sda/rdiff-backup.tmp.709 does not match 
source"

or

"ListError sys/block/sr0/uevent [Errno 13] Permission 
denied: '/sys/block/sr0/uevent'"

and some

"UpdateError sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:11.0/resource0 [Errno 5] 
Input/output error"

In the end there are 480 erros, all concerning /sys.
Should I even try to backup sys? Is it important for rebuilding the system 
after rm -rf / ? 

Thanks in advance,
Florian Philipp
