Hi community, I would like to transfer the contents of an hard disk partition,in which is installed FreeBSD (in another partition is installed NetBSD and another one is unused),to another hard disk. The recipient hard disk will have only FreeBSD,and is capable to get=20 all the data from the original. I guess I would perform such operation in a way like disk image software for Windows (System Commander, Norton Ghost) does.I've seen on previous postings the use of command like 'dd' or 'ioctl',but I don't know if they are appropriate or not. In a few words,my goal is to have a bootable hard disk=20 with my FreeBSD and data,like the original one,original one that=20 I'm going to use for other purposes.
