To Whom It May Concern, I have a full, working, beautiful install of FreeBSD. It is now time for it to go on the Internet. However, there is one thing that I still would like to do. This machine has 2 hard drives in it. The first drive is the whole FreeBSD install. The second drive is totally unused. I would like to mirror the FreeBSD drive to the unused drive so that in the event of a crash, I can just switch the jumpers and the backup drive becomes the master, bootable FreeBSD drive and things carry on as normal. I am still getting used to working in UNIX. I am slowing transforming myself from a Windows person to a UNIX guy. So, if you find the time to help me out, please be very specific in your instructions with some explanation if possible. I appreciate any help you can throw this way. Thanks in advance..
