<div dir="ltr">Help!<div><br></div><div>Something hosed my backend (I've got builders in and I think they were cycling the power in the house on and off when installing something - I unfortunately wasn't home - and I think it's messed with my system drive). The computer wouldn't boot (got stuck at the grub menu) and the 'recovery installation' option in the Fedora DVD couldn't fix it.</div>
<div><br></div><div>My data is all fine (on a separate 5-disk RAID-5 array on the machine).</div><div><br></div><div>I have installed a fresh instance of Fedora 9 on a new partition on free space on the system drive. I can mount my old partitions to get to my old /etc files, etc. Using my old mdadm.conf I can get my RAID back just fine.</div>
<div><br></div><div>Unfortunately my last backup of my myth database is dated the 4th of July - so I'm at least 2 weeks behind (which is better than 2 1/2 years).</div><div><br></div><div>What's the best way to recover? Can I use the old mythconverg database and just copy it over - how do I do that? How do I preserve my mysql settings? (is there a config file I should copy over?) Any easy way to get my apache config files for mythweb copied over?</div>
<div><br></div><div>Any advise on getting smoothly back online? I've been using Myth for a few years now - but never had to recover from anything like this and in that respects still a bit of a noob, Myth has become the only way to watch any TV or listen to music in the house and my wife is getting annoyed!</div>
