I did a full backup of the system after my reinstall, before doing the Restore from my tape. I had to clean the heads of my tape drive, luckily I still had a cleaning tape and it worked. I restored everything except /etc/conf and the job completed "with exceptions" - but I don't know what they were or if important.
The one problem is that /u is a File System, I know this for a fact, but I don't remember what type of File System. After the restore and reboot, it looks like it tried and failed to mount the /u filesystem - it just said "failed to mount". I know this is where most of the inner workings of my legacy application live, so can you tell me what steps to take in order to try and remount this /u file system?
Thanks - you have been VERY helpful and I appreciate it.

Been reading up a little, it looks like I need to run divvy to create the u division on the disk. Old system had root from 539648 - 10000025, and u from 10000026 - 38973679 (40 GB hard drive)
Current system shows root from 539648 -134070446 (140 GB hard drive) I think divvy will let me create the u division and I can probably figure a size. If this is the correct action, should I first delete everything I "restored" to the /u directory? Then would I create and mount the file system, and do a new restore of the /u on the backup tape?
Let me know if I am on the right track, or what else to do. Thanks again.

makecsd
MAKECSD(1) The Canonical Csound Reference MAKECSD(1)
NAME
makecsd - Creates a CSD file from the specified input files. .
DESCRIPTION
Creates a CSD file from the specified input files. The first input file that has a .orc extension (case is not significant) is put to the
<CsInstruments> section, and the first input file that has a .sco extension becomes <CsScore>. Any remaining files are Base64 encoded and
added as <CsFileB> tags. An empty <CsOptions> section is always added.
Some text filtering is performed on the orchestra and score file:
o newlines are converted to the native format of the system on which makecsd is being run.
o blank lines are removed from the beginning and end of files.
o any trailing whitespace is removed from the end of lines.
o optionally, tabs can be expanded to spaces with an user specified tabstop size.
SYNTAX
makecsd [OPTIONS ... ] infile1 [ infile2 [ ... ]]
INITIALIZATION
Flags:
o - t n = expand tabs to spaces using tabstop size n (default: disabled). This applies only to the orchestra and score file.
o - w n = set Base64 line width to n (default: 72). Note: the orchestra and score are not wrapped.
o - o fname = output file name (default: stdout)
EXAMPLES
makecsd -t 6 -w 78 -o file.csd file.mid file.orc file.sco sample.aif
This creates a CSD from file.orc and file.sco (tabs are expanded to spaces assuming a tabstop size of 6 characters), and file.mid and
sample.aif are added as <CsFileB> tags containing Base64 encoded data with a line width of 78 characters. The output file is file.csd.
