Hi men of goodwill, I would like to rebuild my disk slice/partition. I've taken a full backup and I already have a fixit floppy. I am not sure how to go about this. What I would like to do is to clean the partition on which FreeBSD is, reslice and then restore. May someone kindly point me to where this is detailed. I'd like to simulate a scenario where the system has gone corupted and the only otion I have is restore from tape. The tape will be accessed from another host on the same LAN since this host I am restoring has no tape drive. I will use restore to recover / /usr /var... Thanks in advance. -Wash -- Odhiambo Washington Inter-Connect Ltd., wash@iconnect.co.ke 5th Flr Furaha Plaza Tel: 254 11 222604 Nkrumah Rd., Fax: 254 11 222636 PO Box 83613 MOMBASA, KE.
