Thx for the reply, but this is where my problems start.
Firstly i try a tape recovery,once it gets to a point where i can select the files to recover it fails ie
ERROR : Tar: blocksize =0;broken pipe
ERROR: File: /usr/ccs not found
ERROR: file: /usr/obam not found and it carries on with further errors
Secondly i try a DVD recovery and boot from the DVD,but when i try to load files and dependencies, it tells me the file system is full.
That is I try to edit the passwd file , vi isnt loaded, so I add the file to the list and it trys to add the files to the system so i can edit the passwd file.But returns an error that the file system is full, so basically i am $##@@ right now.
So i was thinking of another tool that i could use to edit the passwd file ?
