Are you referring to Section 6.7? >In the 3.1 Security Management Guide (Section 6.4), there are >explicit instructions on how to restore the root filesystem with a >different encodings file. I tried it on 4.0 and it doesn't seem to work. The instructions for restoring the root partition for V4.0A are in the V4.0 Security Management Guide (Section 6.4). There are differences with V3.1A. >So if someone could e-mail or fax to me how to do this, it would be a great >help. If you do not have the V4.0 Security Management Guide, ask. >I also need to know how to restore the boot block and that's not in >the procedure. Can you please explain to me what you are restoring? I'm assuming you have dumped, from a V4.0A system, a root file system to tape. Now you want to restore it to a new "a" partition on some other disk. If that is not the case, let us know. | |||||
