I've also put up my complete procedure for backing up a FBSD box to a DVD-RAM disk and doing a full restore. This includes some bash code that simplifies the backup process considerably. I've tested the backup and restore procedure by restoring my current setup to an unused hard disk, and everything worked perfectly. That doesn't mean that I didn't introduce any errors when I edited the web page. :) http://users.starpower.net/rjhalljr/Serve Click on 'Unix' on the side bar.
