Hi all! Can I use something like dd if=/dev/ad0 of=/dev/ad1 to copy every thing from first drive to the second and be able to boot from the second drive? Do I need to specify block size ? The second drive doesnt have anything on it (filesystem or slices). Thanks -Pranav ******************************************************************* Pranav A.
