If you used the -x switch with rsync, the contents of sys, dev and proc won't be copied n the first place, nor will the contents of any other mounted filesystems. That's if you rsynced from a running VM. If you used qemu-ndb to mount the VM image without starting the VM they would have been empty to start with. -- Neil Bothwick Those who live by the sword get shot by those who don't.
