I don't think this is a question for rsync, per se, but more of a
scripting and utility question.

There's plenty of ways to do this, depending on your version of mount.

With mount-2.11y on a Linux box:

	mount -t nonfs

shows all mounts that are not NFS.

Also local disks will correspond to devices in /dev/, right?  So:

	mount|grep ^/dev/|cut -d' ' -f3

should show you all "local" mounts.  Of course you can modify that grep
regex to be more specific, like "^/dev/[sh]d" to select SCSI and IDE
disks only.
