Now that I've moved to stable and mfi is working, I'd like to stop booting off my SATA SSD (and also move ZIL off it) to a RAID1 on the PERC. I've sliced up the disk etc, but is there a handy procedure I can use to move the relevant parts of / to /newboot (where I've currently mounted the new boot slice)? I'm thinking its not a straightforward tar in '/': /data is a ZFS root volume and contains a number of volumes for user home areas (mounted under /home) and also volumes mounted on /usr/src, /usr/obj and /usr/ports. And then there's /dev too. Once I've got everything moved I'll disable the ZIL and move over by fiddling the BIOS priorities. James
