NAME
     lcrash - Lunar Crash Recovery manual

OVERVIEW
     This manual page was written to give some pointers on how to recover from a
     "lunar update" crash, or an otherwise broken set of lunar tools.

DO NOT PANIC
     These  are	 the suggested steps after your system has been able to success-
     fully boot back into a Lunar Linux bash command prompt but you are not able
     to do a "lunar update" because of a crash/abort/power failure/whatever  oc-
     curing  in	 the middle of a "lunar update" and it did not finish installing
     the lunar commands and Moonbase.  All of these instructions should	 be  run
     as "root".

     1.	 Update lunar coretools: Using a web browser or wget, download a copy of
     http://www.lunar-linux.org/lunar/lunar/lunar-XX.tar.bz2  where  XX	 is  the
     latest version. If you use wget please do these steps:

	    cd /var/spool/lunar

	    wget http://www.lunar-linux.org/lunar/lunar/lunar-XX.tar.bz2

     If	 you use a web browser then go to the location mentioned above and down-
     load lunar.tar.bz2 and save it to the /var/spool/lunar directory.

     2. Manually unpack Lunar: Now unpack the tar.bz2 file with these commands:

	    cd /

	    tar xf /var/spool/lunar/lunar-XX.tar.bz2

	    cd lunar-XX ; make install

     Now your system should be able to run a lunar update.   This  process  will
     update the base scripts and the package collection (Moonbase).
