HP-UX

It is normally init -s or -S...
Othewise, Its so long ago... I think there was something in the logging screen menu, I think you had an option button you clicked to choose... I remember having to go somewhere when I had a workstation refusing to boot (crashed and disk full and corrupted...) I should have taken notes at the time ! (damned) I had to do this so many times at one time it was obvious for me and so never bothered to write down what was to do... I regret now because I see the day I decide to put up my 715 I will suffer...
Cant you borrow a DAT?
If you are in a silly situation I will see what I have at home... because I did have an external DAT unit with the 715 (DDS1...) slow and not much data (2GB? dont remember...) but worked...

Sorry, I was off for some days ...

I do have a DAT ... a 2GB one and a 8GB one, so that's not the problem
I'll have a look at this later on ... have to check my mailboxes first

Hi,

I was able to solve that issue!

As clonezilla didn't work I tested several other tools, and Ghost4Linux on current Parted Magic CD worked fine! I simply did a raw copy on another harddisk, and was able to boot from that one. Its an old Seagate ST51080N, which is way quiter, and has 1GB (there's also an image on our network now ... just in case we'll need it in the future).

Thank you very much for your time & hints!
