Hello DEC Managers,
We have a DEC Alpha running DU 3.2c and need to change the
root, usr and var FS from advanced to normal ufs.
We want to do this because there semm to be hardware problems
with the Disks and we have no possibility to run a filesystem
check (no vfsck available here).
The question is, how to actually change the FS. We have some rough
ideas of dumping the root FS, booting from CD, creating a new FS
and finally manually mounting (not via a skript that is) the FS,
where the original contents were dumped.
Sounds quite straight forward to me, but the problem is, that
we didn't do all the stuff ever before!
Any help is welcomed! Please send us hints and the like,
when you did at least some of the stuff above.
(And is it the right aproach at all ?)
Thanks in advance,
Andreas
