I'd recommend looking into some method of creating a total system
backup and/or something that facilitates rebuilding after a boot disk
crash.  fbackup can't do that.  Free choices include ignite (?),
dd (make a copy of the boot disk to tape or another drive), and
mkrs (if it works on the version of HP-UX you will be running).
