Subject: [gentoo-user] root partition lost - backup too old - please help
Date: Mon, 14 Jun 2010 19:32:44 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <tkrat.dd70bde8f1a32c08@igpm.rwth-aachen.de> (raw)

Hi,

due to a disk crash I've lost my root partition.
Unfortunately, the backup version is 4 weeks old.
But my /usr partition is up-to-date and I have
binary build-pkgs.
What's the fastest way to restore the portage-relevant
data on the root partition?

Many thanks for a hint,
Helmut.
