Re: root files

Hi JJ,

since you have makerec log files, I understand u have created make_recovery tape at some point of time.

You can recover the files from the make_recovery tape

# mt -t /dev/rmt/0mn rew
# mt -t /dev/rmt/0mn fsf 1
# tar -tvf /dev/rmt/0mn

Extract the files from the tape using tar

Re: root files

You should be able to recreate the files listed in the first response as follows:

insf -e

A boot does that as well.
