Rebuilding the system drive
On occasion, the system drive might become corrupted in such a way that installation
with the ERD is impossible, or the system drive might fail and the replacement drive
has nothing on it. In such a case, you can rebuild the system drive using the process
described in “Installing a new system disk or restoring a corrupt system disk” on
page 91.
