Subject: Strange fileystem problem

Hi all...

I have an strange problem. I ask here because it's related to sysfs and
filesystems...

I scp'd an untarred src tree of udev. That tree contains a link or something
like that of /sys. When I scpd it to other box, the symlinks like 'bus' in
the test/sys directory got derreferenced and I have an infinite depth tree
of directories in the dest machine.

Someone knows how to delte it ?

TIA
