Okay fellas, it's been about 2 years now and for the life of me I can't recall how I restored the files...
I've got another computer that has a toasted hard drive and now I've got to rebuild it. I've got this same system, with the same bootable CD.

I created the filesystems and are now trying to mount them so that I can restore the rootsys.bak and standsys.bak files.

I've got the /mnt directory and I've mounted the hard the root to it using the command:
mount /dev/hd0root /mnt

I tried cpio and that didn't work. I don't have a restore file on the CD so I don't recall if I used restore to put the files on there.

Any ideas on what to do next?

There's data on some tapes that I need to restore for the client to get his 1st Quarter '09 reports out.
