Make recovery error

[Krishnan Viswanathan]

I am trying to make a recovery tape and I get this error. What does this imply ? Where can I lookup this error ?

make_recovery(476): Call to /usr/bin/pax failed. errno=9


Thanks
Krishnan

Hi:

'errno=9' (EBADF) is a "bad file number". See the man pages for 'errno'. You can map '9' to EBADF from '/usr/include/sys/errno.h'.

Post the command used, please.

Regards!

Sounds like pax does not exist on your system.

#ll /usr/bin/pax
-r-xr-xr-x 1 bin bin 90112 Nov 14 2000 /usr/bin/pax
