Rsyncing of block devices to a remote file
...all this the receiver is ready to get the data, but in the flist
structure it still says that '/dev/hda1' is still a devicefile
and that the size is 0, and so the sender does send over zero bytes
Now here is the problem : How do I get the size of partition in this
datastructure ? Or more generique, how would I handle this for /dev/fd0,
since you can insert 1.44MB disks or 720kB disks ?
Anybody else tried to read blockdevices over rsync already ?
After all, sending the data of a block device doesn't seem to be as trivial
as the archived mail sugested :-)
