Recovery
- Hard disk was still functional! I put it onto the foce2 system in the software lab, and booted it.
- Borrowed an Acronis TrueImage bootable backup CD from Todd Ruston in IS. Booted off the USB DVD drive, and imaged the entire disk
- Put this image in //tornado/ProjectLibrary/900719_FOCE/FOCE.Software/foce3Image/foce3.tib
- I then replaced the foce2 hard disk on this system, and attached the foce3 hard disk as a slave IDE drive. I tar'd the entire foce3 root file system, and placed this tar.gz file into //tornado/ProjectLibrary/900719_FOCE/FOCE.Software/foce3Image/foce3.tar.gz
- I unmounted the slave drive, and ran e2fsck on it. It passed with flying colors.

Network Problems
If the system doesn't find eth0, you may have a problem with udev mapping, due to using an ethernet adapter with a different MAC address. If this is the case, you must manually edit the file at /etc/udev/rules.d/z25-persistent-net.rules
