> - How do I achieve this?  (via fossilcons?)

If you really want to do this, keep in mind you will lose
all your data on your fossil partition. You will definitely
lose all the temporary snapshots and all data not archived
to venti.

First, boot your file server from the cdrom or from another
file server, then run venti:

% venti/venti -m 50%

Define the environment variable $venti:

% venti=127.0.0.1

Print the vac score of the last archival snapshot of fossil:

% fossil/last /dev/sdC0/fossil

It will print something like:

vac:c6788c8c951e24f7cfb1b9d87135eff0cd464b3c

Format the fossil partition using the last archive score:

% fossil/flfmt -v c6788c8c951e24f7cfb1b9d87135eff0cd464b3c /dev/sdC0/fossil

Now you have restored /active and /archive content as they
were at the time of the last archival snapshot.
