Hi,
I have my first OpenBSD recovery to perform. YEAH! lol.
I have a rsync backup of all the individual files over to another server.
I also have a level 0 "dump" of each filesystem sent over to another server.
As I am planning for my restore (onto a new drive), it occurs to me that
I have never recorded the sizes of the filesystems anywhere.
Are the sizes of the filesystem(s) stored anywhere on the drive that
would have been backed up so I can recreate them with an appropriate size?
The (old) system is OpenBSD 4.0 running on i386. No dmesg for obvious
reasons!
Just out of curiosity, is it possible to restore a level 0 filesystem
dump to NON-pristine filesystem?
eg: could I just create one huge "a" partition and restore my root,
var, src, usr, ... level 0 dumps to it (with some magic incantation)?
Thanks,
Steve Williams
