In any case, you could write a program in perl and insert into the second 
table rows from the first table, using a techique of generarting random 
double precision numbers in a predetermined range (lets say 0 to 2^31-1), and 
then converting this number to your "range" like this:
let your number be r.
let your table's cardinality be N.
then let R=(N*r/(2^31))+1

select a source row from your table like:

select * from srctable order by pk offset <R>,
and then insert this row to your desttable.
