X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Tue, 14 Mar 2006 06:46:29 -0000 Is there a trick to copying one working system from a slice to another slice? What I envision is two slices: /dev/ad0s1 - one complete install /dev/ad0s2 - copy of first install, via dump restore. (Is this where I screwed up?) I tried this, but upon reboot, I could see both installs. I was given a choice of the two, but F2 only booted the first install. What is the trick? Thanks. Steve.
