After completing the cold-install, you can retrieve the information you had previously saved onto another system. Here are some tips: Consider creating a root home directory that is not /. This keeps the user root dot files out of the / directory. Make sure it is on the root volume by not locating it under the mount point of the file system. A good name to uses /homeroot (not /home/root) as /home is often a mount point. This is especially important if you are using LVM or VxVM and /home is a separate volume.
Recover all the customized and personal files that you saved previously by merging them manually. For example, do not overwrite /etc/passwd with your old version. Instead, either paste in entries from your old files or merge the old information into the new files. If you had a local home directory, you can restore it as follows:
Carefully use the same techniques to restore other files and directories, such as /usr, /local and /opt. For help in importing entire volume groups, see either the Managing Systems and Workgroups: A Guide for HP-UX System Administrators or the Managing Superdome Complexes. The commands above will not write over newer files, so your new operating system and any files you update are well protected. After Ignite-UX has finished installing HP-UX 11i and all applications associated with your selected Operating Environment, you will need to verify that no errors occurred during the installation.
