While installing a few packages, I had a RAID disk failure, resulting in a RAID cache flush. This corrupted the install process, but it had downloaded the packages. Into recovery mode and did following; Logsave was installed (using aptitude, yep the system kept going OK) after the initial failure, before reboot. Changed init.d file system checking scripts to include logsave. Then was a shutdown -F which cleanup up some inode issues and files (logsave didn't work). So I don't know exactly what has been altered. Logsave was not saved in either /var/log/aptitude or the debconf/config.dat files. I have done a debsums on the system, and everything looks fine. Will look at the tripwire logs later. My backup and debconf/config.dat-old are both prior to the installs, of which, some packages were installed, and some were not. Copied the config.dat-old to config.dat, but I think that is not enough. Can I regenerate a new /var/cache/debconf/config.dat from the existing system? How? perhaps the following? aptitude reinstall * I know, this probably won't work... as I want it to Thanks -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
