We are back!!!!!
30min = 9 Hours downtime..... sorry all!
Had a few problems along the way...
First had to do a full reinstall of operating system and copy all data across. This took while since so many comic files to move across. During this process I had a nap also as due to long downtime I managed to grab 2 hours sleep last night.
Upon waking up I find the forum etc complaining of corrupt tables... after digging into the issue seems our tables do not like version 5.1 of mysql, had to force server to downgrade to 5.0 in-order to get database working.
It's been a long night, fun in places, but we got our new server now and a new faster hard drive....
THE END
