Interesting. Is it included in the SuSE rescue system?
I can't answer that. I do know that the author provides quick response to questions via the mail-list for dar, darr-support@lists.sourceforge.net
Let me see, I'm curious. File /dvd/boot/rescue (16678787 bytes) is "gzip compressed data, was "rescue 47935", from Unix, max compression", so I uncompress it: it grows to 49085440 bytes. Now it is "Linux rev 1.0 ext2 filesystem data", so I can mount it: mount -t ext2 -o ro,loop=/dev/loop1 /cosas/cer/rescue /mnt There is no "dar" file. If any one is interested, I can post the list of programs.
I have seen messages reporting the *complete* reconstruction of failed SuSE systems (disk crash) achieved automagically via dar.
Hum, interesting. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
