I did full-system restore on a client host:
host: RedHat linux 6.2
partition: only one partition '/'
restore procedure on the client:
  login as root
  cd /
  rsh  server_cat /usr/local/sbin/amrestore -p /dev/nst0  client_cat  |  tar
xvf -

The restore was completed without error.

I got the errors when reboot:
 "Warning: unable to open an initial console.
  Kernel panic: No init found. Try passing init=option to kernel"

Did amanda skip to restore some files (such as 'open')?
Any suggestion for a full-system restore on a Linux host?

Thanks!

David
