I don't know about ghost, per se. But for UNIX backup, learn to use dump(8) and restore(8). With those you write backup and restore files by file system (partition generally). They can dump to tape or disk files on another drive or zip drive or whatever. Check out: man dump and: man restore. Generally for a full backup of a file systems (root (/) and home (/home) for examples) to tape do: dump 0af /dev/nrsa0 / dump 0af /dev/nrsa0 /home or to disk file do: dump 0af FULL_FILE_NAME-root / dump 0af /FULL_FILE_NAME-home /home Replace FULL_FILE_NAME with the name of the file to which you want to write the dump. ////jerry > > > On Fri, 30 Aug 2002, Giorgos Keramidas wrote: > > > On 2002-08-30 23:53 +0000, Riki Winatha wrote: > > > > > > while i use command "make installworld" .. > > > for updating FreeBSD 4.6-STABLE to the newest version.. > > > i got a problem like this: > > > > > > ===> sys/boot/i386/btx > > > ===> sys/boot/i386/btx/btx > > > ===> sys/boot/i386/btx/btxldr > > > ===> sys/boot/i386/btx/lib > > > ===> sys/boot/i386/boot2 > > > install -o root -g wheel -m 444 boot1 /boot/boot1 > > > install -o root -g wheel -m 444 boot2 /boot/boot2 > > > install: boot2: No such file or directory > > > *** Error code 71 > > > > Check to make sure that the directory /usr/src/sys/boot/i386/boot2 > > exists.
