Good to see you are not totally underwater up there. My brother tells me,
it's been wet.

Did you run sysinstx? You'll probably need to find a copy on your Warp4
CD.

Can I assume that when you run the dfsee check command, it reports no
errors?

It's not my favorite recovery method, but it might be the simplest
alternative. Other than time, you won't lose anything. Since you can get
at the volume from your eCS install, you can copy any files that have
changed since the last backup and restore them once the Warp4 volume is
bootable.

Regards,

Steven
