Hi All; I did a backup of a test Fedora 10 install as follows: 1) installed Fedora 10 and applied no updates 2) booted into single user mode and as root ran this: rsync -av <dir> /stage/backup I wrapped the above rsync command in a script where <dir> is replaced with the root (/) dir's I want backed up. Basically everything except the following: /proc /dev /sys /stage Then I rebooted, and ran a yum update, installed a new kernel, many packages, etc Then as a test I booted back into single user mode and as root ran this: rsync -av --delete /stage/backup/<dir> / again the above command was in a script where <dir> was replaced with the same list of root (/) dirs as I used for the backup once complete I rebooted and now I cannot login, I get to a login screen but a login just takes me back to the login screen again. I booted into single user mode, and ran init 3 at the login prompt I tried to login as root and some text flashes by the screen too quickly to read however I did catch the phrase 'permission denied' What have I done wrong ? Thanks in advance... |
