I would like to copy all user accounts, including root from an already
installed 8.0 system to a fresh new 8.1 system.
My plan is to boot into single user mode, then copy these:
/etc/passwd
/etc/master.passwd
/etc/group
then run pwd_mkdb and finally restart the system. (Obviously, I also
need to copy user home directories)
Will this be enough? Did I miss something?
Thanks,
Laszlo
