I am having trouble with /etc/mkrs on a hp9000s300. The dd(1) fails when copying "the boot area to the recovery device". The exact command in mkrs is dd if=/dev/922root_dev of=/dev/update.src bs=8k count=1 It fails with dd: cannot open /dev/922root_dev The device entries are crw-rw-rw 1 root sys 4 0x070300 /dev/update.src crw-rw-rw 1 root sys 4 0x0f0300 /dev/922root_dev brw-rw-rw 1 root sys 0 0x070300 /dev/922rs_dev Could the minor device number for 922root_dev be wrong? Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanx. jim -- Jim Pickering c/o Technical Solutions || (north) ..csustan!polyslo!rducky!jrp P.O.
