Is there a way to create a hdd resore solution with set of boot floppies that will support my tape drive access the tape and restore the entire hard disc in case of disc failure disaster ? ie So I could install a new disc and be up and running without doing any additional admin? I guess like a 'ghost' for scsi tape ? Any advice / links etc apperciated. Also .... Description: Glass bulb, similar to light bulb but with narrow end flared at bootom so it standsup. Inside, a rotating wire device that has 4 squares of card like material attached, like vanes. One one side they are black on the other they are white. When the sun shines brightly enough, the white side reflects the light energy and the black side absorbs it. The vanes spin around. This does exist and has a name and I know there are some very knowledgeable people on this list who will know. Whats it called..... please !!!
