At first I think it's best to backup every filesystem individually, 
instead of just marking "everything". That way you are also safe you do 
not backup duplicate mounted filesystems, cdroms, ...

Also, exlude the /proc tree. You can also find it in the standard exclude 
that comes with the example configs. /proc is a memory filesystem, so 
you're backing up your memory too, which is not what you want :-)
