I thought about a clean install, but as all the config is nearly the way I want it, was wondering how do I "copy" the old drive to the new. I found a cheat sheet on mostgraveconcern, but this was written for 3.4 and as I am running 4.1.1R (will cvsup now I have the space to 4.3R :o)) I am not sure the idea will still work ??? Thanks in advance for replies. Regards, Kat. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
