I recently (well a couple of months ago) had to transfer a whole
system to a new disk which I did with dump and restore.

Unfortunately restore sets schg flags before it trys to create
links (at least that's how it appeared to me) so I got errors
which had to be fixed by hand on trying to restore:

All of these were hard links by the way and this was a restore
of the /usr filesystem.

./bin/ypchsh    could not be linked to    ./bin/chpass
./bin/ypchfn             "                ./bin/chpass
./bin/ypchpass           "                ./bin/chpass
./bin/chsh               "                ./bin/chpass
./bin/chfn               "                ./bin/chpass
./bin/yppasswd           "                ./bin/passwd

I haven't looked at the source so take this as a whinge only.

I'm hoping a restore guru will know how to fix this.

"If it is true that our Universe has a zero net value for all conserved
quantities, then it may simply be a fluctuation of the vacuum of some
larger space in which our Universe is imbedded. In answer to the
question of why it happened, I offer the modest proposal that our
Universe is simply one of those things which happen from time to time."
