41 | Ideally, restore your system to a spare hard drive to test the
|
---|
42 | integrity and reliability of your disks. To do that, either edit your
|
---|
43 | mountlist to make the devices point to your spare hard drive, or swap
|
---|
44 | your hard drive cables between boots.</P>
|
---|
45 | <P ALIGN=LEFT>
|

46 | At a bare minimum, compare your CD against your file system before

47 | you decide whether to trust them.</P>

130 | Interactive Mode is for people who have lost a subset of data from

131 | their live file system, or perhaps who have lost some data from their

132 | latest backup and want to restore a subset of data from an earlier
|

133 | backup. If you want to restore only some files or if you do not want
|
---|
134 | to prep/format your drives, then you should boot into Interactive
|
---|
135 | Mode. The interactive mode will provide an 'Editing mountlist screen'
|
---|
136 | that allows you to setup a different disk geometry.</P>
|
---|
137 | <P ALIGN=LEFT>
|
---|
138 | To move up and down between partitions in the 'Editing mountlist
|
---|
139 | screen', use the Up and Down arrows. To move between the main window
|
---|
140 | and the buttons at the bottom, use the Left and Right cursor keys.
|
---|
141 | TAB shifts focus from one screen item to the other in a haphazard
|
---|
142 | fashion, owing to the complexities of the Newt library.</P>
|
---|
143 | <P ALIGN=LEFT>
|
---|
144 | If you want to restore selectively, just press <enter> and

145 | follow the on-screen instructions. You will be asked to say yes/no to

146 | a range of questions.</P>

231 | One of the nice things about Mondo is that it lets you wipe your

232 | existing system and restore it in any layout you like (within
|

233 | reason). You can move from non-RAID to RAID,install and utilize
|

|
---|
235 | risking the loss of data.</P>

236 | <P ALIGN=LEFT>
|

237 | If the user excluded a particular partition from backup and

335 | So long as your /etc/raidtab file is sane, Mondo can automatically
|
---|
336 | partition and format your disks for you, including the RAID devices.</P>

338 | Once you have finished editing /tmp/mountlist.txt using

339 | mondorestore's built-in editor then you may choose 'OK'. Please note

340 | that this will not write anything to your hard disk. You will only
|
---|
341 | reformat or repartition your disks if you say 'Yes' when <I>asked </I>if
|

342 | you want to do those things.</P>

346 | It is now possible to restore to a live filesystem using Mondo. In
|
---|
347 | other words, you do not have to boot your PC from your CD/floppy in
|
---|
348 | order to restore files. Mondo was originally designed for disaster
|
---|
349 | recovery - situations in which you cannot boot your PC. If you can
|
---|
350 | boot your PC, it is not really a disaster, is it? :) Well, if you
|
---|
351 | have wiped out your priceless collection of "MTV's Bjork
|
---|
352 | Unplugged" MP3's, perhaps it is. Anyway, just type this as root</P>
