As much as this solution isn't necessarily a freebsd one, it can be easily done on a dos boot disk. Have you ever tried ghost? What you can do is get the hard drive all set up however you want it. Make an image of that and burn it to a cd (it should fit as I've done this several times when I used to build preinstall systems) then on the "bootdisk/restore" disk for the new machine there are a number of command line options you can throw into autoexec to run ghost automatically and pull the image off the cd and ghost it right onto the drive, exactly the way you set it up originally. ----- Original Message ----- From: Butch Evans <butch@sheltonbbs.com> Date: Thursday, October 19, 2000 10:33 pm Subject: Win 98 Image > I need to come up with a solution pretty quickly.
