RE: [cobalt-users] Raq4r Hard disk failure.



I have been in charge of this server for about 2 weeks now. I have just found out that the restore cd has been used at least 2 times before I started here. According to Tech Support it is a "bad" OS restore cd. That explains why the dual 40GB hdds show up as 5.6GB. I see no alternative but a full reinstall. Is this "bad" restore cd a common thing?

The easiest way to do this is to use Norton Ghost to resize the master to 
the new drive.
