I have a Risc 6000 390 with Floppy, 8GB-5mm-Tape, CD, ASC-
console IBM3151, Installation Cds and a boot-tape.
I am using AIX 4.3.3.
Today I tried to reinstall sambe under /usr/local/samba/bin.
To remove the old version I made "make uninstall" and looked
at the directory: it was full. Therefore I removed all files
"rm *" in this dir.
But this was only a link to /usr/bin ! Therefore ALL file of
/usr/bin are removed !!!
I tried to reboot, but it is not working.
To recover those files, I replaced the system harddisk by
another and installed a base AIX-System on the second HDD.
Then I saw that I have a backup of /usr/bin of this machine
and rebooted the original HDD with installation CD,
mounting the rootvg. Then I copied the /usr/bin of the
backup (I burned a CD) into the rootvg.
But now the machine will not boot !!! On the three digit
display the machine switches between 223 and 229, but no
boot. In maintenance mode, I can boot in single user mode.
PLEASE HELP !!! Thanks Harald
