I was able to move and copy onto disk two but it wasn't listed when I did a ls at root. I had to reboot. I also included 300 Meg's of new Swap. I added it for back up purpose. I successfully tested out the dump/restore procedure but I would like to find a script that does this. If someone knows of a blue print that would be great. I really need a start. I plan on using cron to do this every week. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
