This is a flawed question, because rdiff-backup can not restore to a new blank disk. It must be parittioned and formatted first. And grubbed afterwards. You can exclude everything. I exclude /dev, /sys, /proc, *.gvfs, and /tmp. If you use the option for staying on one filesystem, and back up /, you'd not need to exclude proc, sys, or dev. _______________________________________________ rdiff-backup-users mailing list at [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/rdiff-backup-users Wiki URL: http://rdiff-backup.solutionsfirst.com.au/index.php/RdiffBackupWiki
