Basically, the steps are:
1. Boot up the system with a DU CDROM
2. Choose system management which will bring you to a single user shell
3. cd /dev
4. ./MAKEDEV rz# tz# (create necessary device files to access disk and tape
drive)
5. disklabel -wr /dev/rrz#c <disktype> (-wr will put the bootstrap programs
onto the boot blocks, see man disklabel for more detail.)
6. If needed, execute "disklabel -re /dev/rrz#c" to repartition the disk.
7. newfs /dev/rrz#a
8. mount /dev/rrz#a /mnt
9. cd /mnt
10. restore -r (assuming that the tape is dump format)
11. repeat 7 - 10 for /usr, /var with appropiate device file, e.g., /dev/rrz#g
& /dev/rrz#h or whatever.
