Need Tech Review of HP-UX bare metal chapter for O'Reilly Book



My name is W. Curtis Preston, and I'm the author of "Backup & Recovery"
(formerly "Unix Backup & Recovery") from O'Reilly & Associates.
(http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/unixbr/ )

This is a seven year-old book that we're updating for it's second
edition.

Someone formerly from HP has updated the bare metal recovery chapter
for HP-UX. It uses the Ignite-UX make_net_recovery and
make_tape_recovery tools to restore the operating system on an HP-UX
system.

Can anyone in this group step up to the plate and review this chapter
for me? You would be mentioned in the acknowledgments of the book and
receive an autographed copy of the book.

We're looking for two tech reviewers.
