From: Forrest To: FreeBSD Questions Message-ID: Mime-version: 1.0 Content-type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG What is the best way to accomplish the following: Have a working installation (4.2-CURRENT) on one 45 G IDE hard disk (only 11 G are in use), and I would like to copy it EXACTLY to another, 30 G hard disk, so that I can (hopefully) replace the 1st hard disk (the working one has no errors) with the copy. Or is this too unwieldy? Thanks in advance, Forrest To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
