Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi all! How can I create a bootable CD that has an image of an existing custom freeBSD system, such that when I pop the CD into any other machine it will boot and install the image on the hard drive? So that I just reboot the new machine and it will be up and running with the same partitions and file system as the old one. I would appreciate any kind of help, suggestions or pointers. Thank you for your time. -Pranav ******************************************************************* Pranav A.
