Im running gentoo linux.  After emerging rdiff-backup (installing) I
attempted to run it to backup my /boot (small, so a good test).  My
backups will be simple, I have the system running all on a 40 gig drive. I
have a second 40 gig drive that I will backup /boot and / too. Here was
the output of my first try:

*[root@sc.am:/] rdiff-backup --mirror-only --force --print-statistics
/boot /mnt/backup-boot/
