/sys ( also /proc , probably others )
some
things that looks like directories and files, do not make sense to copy to
another computer.
generally, these give some kind of access to running kernel-type
things.
I
think some of these "files" are write-only or would give information about
some hardware (if you had the hardware)
also
some things like /dev/zero or /dev/null (anything in /dev, probably)
needs special handling.
/mnt/ tends to catch anything mounted (like CDs and
stuff)
#
mount
/dev/sda3 on / type ext3 (rw) proc on /proc type proc (rw) sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620) /dev/sda1 on /boot type ext3 (rw) tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw) none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw)
