I have been trying to find an explanation of just what the /sys directory is on 9.1 but cannot seem to find much. (I had to exclude it from my backup to make the backup work.) Could someone point me to the appropriate documentation or sdb article(s)?
It is the mountpoint for the new sysfs file system in the 2.6 kernel. It is a sort of extension or cleanup of the old /proc. For documentation, install the kernel sources and read /usr/src/linux/Documentation/filesystems/sysfs.txt
