Hi
I'm new to the list.
If this is OT please tell me and i won't bother 
you again.

I'm not a newbie but I need help.
I managed to do a rm -rf /
It erased my /bin /boot /dev 
and something from /mnt

I recovered from backup but can't 
boot.

I boot the default kernel, it boots fine.
... boot messages here
Mounting root ext2 fs read-only
Freeing unused kernel memory 
Mounted devices in /dev
Init version 2.83 booting
INIT: cannot execute /etc/rc.d/rc.S
INIT: cannot execute /etc/rc.d/rc.M
INIT: cannot execute /sbin/agetty
INIT: respawning too fast, disabled for five minutes

Those files _are_ there and _are_ executable.
(I verified by booting from the slackware 8.0
install-cd and mounting the partitioin and ls -l)

If I try to boot with init=/bin/sh

No init found -- kerne panic :-)

From my experience this seems to be a /dev/ problem

Any ideas what should i do ?

Thanls 
Calin
