Hi,

I have yet another exclusive configuration need. I'd like to back up a  
file _without_ it's contents. I noticed that under Gentoo Linux /dev/ 
tty12 takes a lot of useless space. The terminal output is stored  
there - somethig that I can very well live without in case I have to  
restore a system from backup.
The only way I can imagine it right now is to exclude the file  
completely and create a dedicated restore jobdef where /dev/tty12 is  
created per runscript directive. This doesen't feel right though.
Any ideas?

Thanks much.
