Use "dump" to make a backup of your SCSI disk. Do a minimal FBSD install on your IDE disk, using a similar partition and disklabel scheme as the FBSD install on the SCSI disk. Now use "restore" to transfer the backups to the IDE disk. Please note that "dump" and "restore" work on complete filesystems. =Adriaan= _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
