I used pax and cloned /usr and /. Both appear to correct. The partition size and location for the root partitions on each drive look to be identical. I then edited the fstab on the new drive to mount /usr and /var from the new drive and tried to boot it. The boot manager prompted me with: F1 FreeBSD F5 Disk 1 I entered F5 and was prompted with F1 FreeBSD F5 Disk0 I enter F1 and the system resets immediately and I start from scratch. I mean resets to where it would be if I power cycled the box. BIOS restarts. My system is running 3-Stable as of 3/5/2000 on an AMD K6-2 on an ASUS P5A running Award BIOS.
