This can be done directly by using sysinstall to create the partition, followed by disklabel to create the slices and install boot blocks on the new drive. Something like the following should take care of the disklabel step: # disklabel B -r -w ad1 auto # disklabel -e -r ad1 ... To transfer the data across, mount the slices as: /bkroot /bkvar /bkusr ...
