Just wanted you to know that rysnc droid is a project for android. If the install steps dont work on a android device, android forum is the best place to seek advice. Dont get me wrong, but getting a android app to work, I was assuming that the developers of that app would have done enough research to get it to work on a real device. I guess not enough. When I put up the question I was thinking may be I was doing something wrong. Then it struck me, why system/bin.. It can be just any other folder.
