   You certainly should look elsewhere, that file is "virtual", it doesn't   
   "really" exist.   
      
   Unless you told rsync to backup /proc. In that case, the backup will   
   contain dozens of useless files, and at least one really huge.   
      
      
   rsync $OPTIONS --one-file-system  --link-dest=$PREVIO  \   
        --exclude=/lost+found  --exclude=/dev  --exclude=/sys \   
        --exclude=/proc --exclude=/run   \   
        /   $DEST
