Hi all, We use Legato Networker backup for taking the backup of our Linux server and to do a Linux Bare Metal recovery, I use the following procedure : * Boot on a Knoppix Live CD on the server you have to restore; * Change your hostname/IP address to be able to contact your Networker server; * Install the Networker client on your Knoppix Live server (with Unionfs available in Knoppix, it's not a problem !)- you can use alien to convert the rpm package to a debian package; * Mount the disk you have to restore on your Knoppix server; * If needed, restore your partition table with the command sfdisk /dev/sda < sfdisk_sda.out; * restore the file system with Networker; * re-install grub with the command grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sda; * and reboot your system !!!. This procedure will also work for Veritas. Regards. Pierre. -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of dv0r4k Sent: jeudi 20 octobre 2005 11:18 To: General Red Hat Linux discussion list Subject: Re: Bare metal recovery On 10/20/05, Meadows, Andrew <AMeadows@xxxxxxx> wrote: > Researching using mkcdrec > Anyone had any experiences with this? --->8 I'm still trying to OBDR the tape using mkcdrec but no luck. It just won't boot without error & warning.
