Hi all
I may need to format my hard drive due to mapping problems. My !Boot
file is approx 3.6Gb in size and I'm using RO 5.16. I have backed up
the entire disk contents to a NAS drive on my LAN. As far as I can
see, after reformatting the HD I will need to do the following:
1. Restore the !Boot file
- either from the NAS (requiring re-establishment of
LanMan98 and the network settings);
- or from a USB memory stick (requiring an operational USB
driver - is the USB driver in ROM under 5.16?).
2. Copy over the remaining approx. 60Gb of backed-up hard disk
contents from the NAS
- but presumably, restoring the !Boot file as in step 1.
would also restore LM98 and the network settings?
Any comments/warnings/advice on the above gratefully received!
George
