> Bad news: the new server's primary disk borked.  I could recover nothing

>
> Good news: nothing critical beyond an installed applications list and
> configurations for the various services I run.
>
> Good news: replacenet disk received yesterday, four times the size of the
> original primary volume.
>
> Bad news: because I could recover nothing, this means that the only thing I
> do not have to do is restore the /home volume (where my users' data lives).
>  I will have to burn the server in again to make sure it's not going to do
> this again, reinstall all the necessary stuff again, reconfigure everything
> again, and somewhere in all of this, ship the unit out again.

> Bright side: it has a bigger disk. =)

> Somewhere in all of this, the seeds of an Aa! Megamisama fic are brewing.
