Hello All,
I have an urgent problem that I'm hoping someone can assist with.
One of our XTRs has had problems as a result I've decided to get the XTR
to its original configuration - it doesn't have any sites/email so losing
the data isn't a big deal.
Having downloaded the OS Restore iso image, I'm curious as to how we
actually restore the XTR to factory install.
Looking at the archives this was mentioned as a procedure for a RaQ 3i -
does this also apply to XTR?
Is there another way of doing it - more simpler?
OS RESTORE CD Instructions
--------------------------
USING A RESTORE CD WILL COMPLETELY WIPE YOUR MACHINE CLEAN!
You need the following hardware:
Desktop PC with a CDROM drive (bootable)
Network Card (3COM or Intel) - We recommend Intel EtherExpress Pro 10/100
Ethernet crossover cable
Download the ISO image of your choice.
Burn it to a CD.
Boot up desktop with the CD.
Accept License Agreement.
Desktop PC is now a DHCP/OS Restore Server.
Connect crossover cable from desktop to Ethernet Port 1 of RaQ.
Thanks
