Files missing from full restore

Hi All,

I have a Sun Ultra 60 running Solaris 8. I had a disk fail this morning
so have had to replace the disk.

I booted from cdrom into single user mode and setup the partitions on
the disk, newfs'd each one, mounted and run ufsrestore -ivf
/dev/rmt/0cn, add * and the extract. Once it'd finished extracting all
directories I installed the bootblk.

The system booted up and was having....

 INIT: Command Respawning too rapidly. Check for possible errors.
id: co "/usr/lib/saf/sac -t 500"

INIT: Command Respawning to rapidly. Check for possible errors.
id: co "/usr/lib/saf/ttymon -g -h -p "`uname -n` Console Login: -T sun
-d /d"

I checked out the /usr/lib/saf directory and it was empty? I copied all
the files from another system into this directory and it booted ok.

Now I have found another directory with some files missing?

I've looked on the backup tape and these files are there so am now
restoring them.

Does anybody know why these files were missing? And if there could be
anymore?

I'll Summarize.

Thanks,
Colin.
