Date: Tue, 20 Aug 1996 17:21:33 -0700 Organization: The Mutual Group Lines: 14 Message-ID: <321A568D.CC1@themutualgroup.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: 159.208.160.12 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Mailer: Mozilla 2.02 (Win16; I) We have accidentally removed (good old rm command!) the /boot, /bsd, /bsd.orig and /devfd files from the root of our system (BSDI V2.0 running on Intel platform). While the system is still running we're going to have big problems when it eventually goes down. Is there anywhere we can get these files? I can't go to BSDI directly as the entire system is provide by our ISP and thus we didn't purchase the OS ourself. Our ISP is looking into what they can do but I though someone here could provide the files quicker. Are these files specific to a particular installation or are they the same for all V2.0 hosts? I'm just wondering if it's as simple as getting someone running V2.0 to send them to me? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Nathan Lodoen nathan.lodoen@themutualgroup.com
