I have been looking at trying to recover some old systems. And if I boot RHEL AS 2.1 cd into rescue mode and create /boot file system. And then use f8 LiveCD to restore data to /boot with tar it corrupts the file system. If I run fsck /dev/hda2 from As 2.1 it tells me it is clean, but if I run fsck -f /dev/hda2 is says there are problems. AS 2.1 has no network support in rescue mode. I have been able to use AS 3 and it seems okay with the file system. Any ideas on what is going on? If I do like / then when I run fsck I loose a bunch of files and the system won't boot. The funny thing is that if I do the same thing with AS 3 it is fine. And I know that the ext3 file systems are different between AS 2.1 and 3. So to recap LiveCD works with AS 3 ext3 file systems okay, but not AS 2.1 ext3 file systems. I would love to stop using AS 2.1, but that isn't an option right now.
