That may be an option. I have never used make_recovery but understand it to be a part of Ignite-UX? How would I know whether I have Ignite-UX on the other workstation? If not, how do I get a copy of the CD for HP-UX 10.20? Maybe HP?
Also, per our prior dialogue, tape drive was located at /dev/rmt/0m. What are the typical locations for floppy, CD-ROM, and hard drive? I believe that this system has /dev/floppy/c0t1d0 for floppy, /dev/dsk/c0t0d0 for CD-ROM, and /dev/dsk/c3t6d0 for hard drive? Does this make sense i.e. both CD-ROM and hard drive at /dev/dsk/. What is the definition of, for example, c0t0d0 i.e. what is the c0, t0, and d0 stand for?
Thanks in advance.
