Hi. I'm replacing my FreeBSD 2.2.8-Stable box, and need to move the contents of one hardrive onto another. The current drive is a 500 MB ide drive, and new drive will be a 1.2 GB ide drive. I need to move / and /usr from the old drive onto the new drive without losing any files, and preserving permissions, etc. The slices on the new drive will be different sizes than on the old drive. What is the best way to go about doing this? Please reply to me. I am not subscribed to the list. Thanks.
