System crash!!! How do I recover when my disaster disk doesn't boot



Thanks in advance for the help, folks.

I was just finished ftping a file to get Mosaic running when, as root, I
issued this command from my /bin directory: mv lib* /temp.

My intention was to move the two files I had just downloaded to a temp
directory so I could then unpack them.

However, this seems to have erased my filesystem and commands (as may
already be obvious to some of you.)

Now my system hangs during boot.  I can't seem to recover with my disaster
disk.  The disaster disk fails giving me the Loading Linux ... and then
"Boot failed" error.

Any ideas are appreciated.

Thanks,

Andy Hencke
