You can do make extract in the dir for the port. Then you can go to the work dir, find configure and do ./configure --help That will give you a list of available options. That's great thanks Glenn. I think I've spotted the option I need and the source file (mod_auth_digest.c) certainly appears in the work directory.

Re: Migrating FreeBsd installation to another hard drive
Thanks for the time taken to detail all of the steps. I think I am doing roughly the same thing except you are going via from _source_ to _intemediary_ back to _source_ once the RAID is sorted. I am going straight from _source_ to _destination_. I may be wrong but do any of your steps below involve writing the standard mbr (not the freebsd boot manager) to the drive?

After quite a lot of reading I got round to following this article[1] using a VMWare FreeBsd instance. In brief the article uses dump and restore to move the data from one mounted partition to another in single user mode. It also suggests that before you do this, you perform a minimum install on the destination disk to ensure that it boots fine. First time round, I did the minimum install and then followed the steps (minus the MAKEDEV step as I'm running 5.3R) to backup the data to the destination. This all worked fine. Second time round, I didn't do a minimum install, rather I just set-up the slice and partitions on the destination using sysinstall, and then did the dump/restore. On booting from the destination disk this time, nothing happened. I reasoned that it was because I had no boot manager installed and so went ahead and used boot0cfg -B to install the FreeBsd boot manager. The disk now boots; however, I would prefer to use the equivalent of the 'Standard - Install a standard MBR (no boot manager)' option from sysinstall as FreeBsd is the only OS on the disk and so I don't need the option of booting to it or anything else. I'm guessing that I would use fdisk to do this but if so am not entirely sure how. In addition, is this safe to perform on a disk with data or would I need to go through the dump/restore process again?

I have read about using dd but am not entirely sure whether this would do what I need? No, you should use dump/restore and if it is the root partition you will need to edit fstab afterwards. Can I just double check that the editing of fstab is only applicable if my device names change? During my testing here I have been migrating to a secondary disk that eventually becomes the primary. As such I haven't had to change the fstab (both origin and eventually destination are device ad0). When I do this for real however, I will be migrating from a single drive to an array so understand that in that case I will need to edit fstab to reflect the device change (this should be fine as I have had to do this in the past). --Alex PS There's a FAQ all about this. I have no wish to decry the bsdvault article you quote, since I haven't read it -- it may even be the same as the FAQ. But if the FAQ or handbook has a section answering your question, then it is always likely to be the best starting point. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/disks.html#NEW-HUGE-DISK Thanks, I'd already read the faq and the bsdvault procedure is very similar in content. I just wondered if there was any better/other ways really..
