Here are the results of getfsent. Yes it is fine to concentrate on root (/)
for now.
Thanks,

Yup.

It should have auto-detected that for you.
Now we get to dive into one of the ickiest pieces of code you're ever
likely to run across (because it is so system dependent).
cd to client-src and "make getfsent", then run it and post the results.
All it does it make the OS calls to look up the file system information
and report what it found. No special privileges are needed.
For the moment, is it OK to concentrate on the backup of "/" (just to
avoid throwing too many variables into the mix)? If not, put the file
system (or device name) of interest on the ./getfsent command line to have
it look up that specific information (it will look up "/" by default).
