  13.  How do I restore a "bru" tape backup of my / and /usr
  14. filesystems to my SCSI disk?
  15.  I have an entry level Indigo with Indigo Video board. 4.0.5MM
  16. was on the Indigo, and I installed 4.0.5F. Now the message "No
  17. Indigo Video Board Installed" appears when I try invoking video
  18. utilities like VideoPanel. The probability is ~1.0 that I'm at
  19. fault here, as I botched the install by loading the CDs in the
  20. wrong sequence, etc. So, I'd like to restore to the system state
  21. before the upgrade attempt and start over.
  22.  Thanks.
