So im not sure what happened but now I can no longer boot up the firewall. Something about crc error on the HDD. Is there any way to recover at least the config of somehow fix the drive from the command prompt? Title: Re: EFW had drive failed... Need help recovering system Post by: davvidde on Wednesday 13 October 2010, 03:58:57 am It is best practice to make a backup of the efw-configuration and download it on other system, however if you previously made that you can find it in /home/httpd/html/backup
You should access to the disk with a live distribution of fedora or other redhat-like system and copy the backup to a floppy or USB disk then restore it after reinstallation of EFW. If you do not have the backup you should recover at least the following directories and files /etc/endian/ /etc/httpd/ /etc/rc.d/ /etc/ssh/ /etc/businfotab /etc/hosts /etc/localtime /etc/shadowroot /var/efw/ /root/installer.meta.backup These are files and directories that are backing up with config option only.
