Sorry, couldn't resist. Ideally, you should have some way of backing that machine up. There are certain situations that, while not impossible to recover from without a backup, are close to it. Is your machine still up and running? Is it connected to a network? That way, you could transfer some files over the net. If you care to recreate some of the /dev entries, read up on mknod. If I was in your position, with no back up, I'd get that drive into another working machine as a secondary drive, write /dev/* onto it, and put it back into the original machine. -- Ed Marczak [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
