I've been running a snapshot from several months back & got my
new 4.1 cds finally. Uname shows OpenBSD 4.1 Generic#0. I want
to keep my existing /home & /data partitions, delete all the
rest, recreate them & finish the install. After I reboot, I was
hoping I could copy over the old users from the old /etc/group
into the new one, copy the old passwd over & run pwd_mkdb. Just
want to know if I've reasoned it out correctly or not, if it is
right if there's anything else I need to run to synchronize
things, & so on. I've tried looking up that kind of scenario with
google, in the mail archives & so forth & just don't seem to come
up with what I need. The point of what I'm trying to accomplish
is not to have to copy so much from the 2 aforementioned partitions
to another drive & then copy it all back after recreating users.
Thanks for any help.
