--b5gNqxB1S1yM7hjW Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Hi, I'm trying to setup a vinum mirrored root fs. I've not got very far (although I have some excellent help once I get past this stage ;) -- I'm trying to duplicate my disk. Right now I have /dev/ad0s1(n) and I'd like an exactly copy of that slice on /dev/ad2s1. I've been trying to use dd (which I know very little about): dd if=3D/dev/ad0s1 of=3D/dev/ad2s1 I don't know if that's the right way to go about it or not, but I get the error ``dd: /dev/ad2s1: Operation not permitted'', which leads me to believe I've messed something up. I'm in single user when trying to do this and the /dev/ad0s1(n) partitions are mounted. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, -lewiz. --=20 I was so much older then, I'm younger than that now. --Bob Dylan, 1964. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -| msn:purple@lewiz.net | jab:lewiz@jabber.org | url:http://lewiz.net |- --b5gNqxB1S1yM7hjW Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE/ZHu7Itq0KFQv7T8RAtMdAJ42nuaUckJ9A26xx0Rd1hZ3/IjlrwCgnl6E vFFv9zCn3kzNP7a3sdgNfbg= =BPGX -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --b5gNqxB1S1yM7hjW--
