Fellow 3b1er's ,
HELP!!!
I recently had a hard disk crash. I lost unix and the /usr directory.
With a little luck and using fsck and fsdb I was able recover most of my
data files into lost+found. However, I have no file names!! They are all
just named with thier respective i-node numbers!!
I have fixed the system so that it boots and there is a /usr directory.
I want to move some of my installed packages back into the proper places.
(Original disks proved not usable.) I have manged to do this with 1 package.
however, I need some help with a few others.
What I am looking for is :
1) A list from a cpio archive for the packages I need.
I only need the listing with the "t" option so I can see each filename
and the file size. This way based on size I should be able to rename the
files to the correct name.
2) A copy of the install script so I make sure I put all the files
back where they belong.
It is so frustrating knowning I have all the software but can't use it.
The packages I need info on are:
VOICE : System Software
VOICE : Email
VOICE : Answering Machine
Microsoft Word
I would be most indebted to any one who can help me.
MANY THANKS
Andy
