I'm trying to figure out how to get rsync to backup to a Firewire harddrive. I run my little thingamajig to run it (down at the bottom), but everytime it runs, it just says it's skipping every directory in the / directory. And then says:
chown etc : No such file or directory
chown tmp : No such file or directory
chown var : No such file or directory
rsync error: partial transfer (code 23) at /SourceCache/rsync/rsync-8/rsync/main.c(576)
#!/bin/sh
rsync --links --exclude= "/Volumes" --delete -ptogD /* /Volumes/Firewire\ 75000/
So, any advice on what I'm doing wrong. Is this there a better Unix tool to do this? I usually do my backing up by just dragging and dropping thing, but that's kind of tedious since I have to backup everything.
