Subject:   how do I put in a new root partition hdd

This may seem like  silly question, but how do I put in a new HDD, (IDE)
that will be the / or root partition, when I have another HDD as the
/usr partition, without trashing the secondary HDD and its contents.?
I shuld just be able to do a minimal install, and restore a DUMP of the
original root partition right? I can do that on another OS, what happens
with FreeBSD?

thanks for any clues,
robert
