ok, this is how i just did it... =)  (wasnt the 1st time)

i had two stock drives, partitioned them with the manner i wanted,
installed the os to some partitions.

then i configured the the ccd's (8 of those)

did newfs:ing, then i mounted them to a running system, to some
mountpoints (i use /mnt /mnt2 /mnt3 and so on, doesnt matter)

then i cd to the dir i want to put into the ccd, and

find . -depth -print | cpio -pumdv /mnt2

copies all i want from the filesystem i had to the new one.

then i twiddled with /etc/fstab so that the ccd's are mounted on boot
time, and didnt forget to put

ccdconfig -Cv

to my /etc/rc to appropriate place, actually, seems it's there, i just
like to have the v there too... =)

anyway, then just reboot.

after boot i take the filesystems i had before ccd to another use (more ccd)

=)

oh yes, mount the ccds async... and if you use striping, prepare to
massive data loss, even tho i havent ever seen those...
