	I misspoke, /etc/group is in etc.tar, which I got from
the snapshot.  Let me try and deduce this better

head -9 /etc/group from the latest snapshot: (in etc.tar.gz)
wheel:*:0:root
daemon:*:1:daemon
kmem:*:2:root
sys:*:3:root
tty:*:4:root
operator:*:5:root
bin:*:7:
news:*:8:
wsrc:*:9:

Selected lines from gunzip -c base.tar.gz | tar tvf - from the snapshot:
r-xr-xr-x   3/4   66392 Jul 16 01:44 1997 ./bin/mt
r-xr-xr-x   3/4  220420 Jul 16 01:44 1997 ./bin/mv

r-xr-sr-x   3/6   96948 Jul 16 01:54 1997 ./usr/bin/netstat

(For reference from the snamp /etc/passwd user id 0 is root,
 and 3 is bin)

	Now, it makes no sense to me that these would be group
tty, or that ps and netstat are setgid to a non-existant group.

	To document how I got to where I am:

Created a 1.2 miniroot on rz0.
Booted rz0.
Labeled rz1.
newfs'ed a / and /usr on rz1.
Uncompress base.tar, etc.tar, comp.tar, misc.tar, text.tar from
 the latest snapshot onto the new / and /usr.
 Run "MAKEDEV all" on the new /dev.
Copied snapshot kernels to new /.
Boot off rz1.


	It's quite possible I've done something stupid.  Ideas?
