Yes, but the problem is the restore specifically on the RaQ. From
previous correspondence on this list it seems that you have to set up
the sites again using the Cobalt interface.

Without knowing the details of how the Cobalt system actually works,
it's not obvious which files can be simply replaced, and which have to
be set up again through the interface. 

Could one, for instance, restore all the '/home/sites' and '/etc' stuff
and expect to be able to carry on from before the crash, or is it not
that simple?
