Hello jollyjet.

you can try with an ignite backup from a similar system rp7420. or an ignite backup from a diferent system.

or you can try your OS installation cd and run a recovery shell.

check the other partition has this file /sbin/lib/mfsconfig. If yes, then make a recovery tape out of this OS and boot the other partition with this tape. When system is up, then do post modification. Cheers

Hi,

It sound like you will need to recover from the CD. Do ypu have a mirror of the root volume you group. Or an ignite backup tape. if not maybe HP can provide a solution. after all is done I run an ignite tape when you recovery your system.

Good Luck,
sp,
