There are two ways: using fdisk and not using fdisk. You'll want to use fdisk if you plan on using it with DOS. The second type is strictly for FreeBSD (thusly labeled 'dangerously dedicated'). If you want the fdisk type, mail me privately, it's rather long. The short way is: disklabel -Brw sd1 auto disklabel -e sd1 for each filesystem on sd1: newfs -d0 /dev/rsd1x x=filesystem vi /etc/fstab mount appropriately Then you can use dump | restore to copy one disk to the other.
