I've installed a new drive as primary master, and I want to move the FreeBSD installation to the new drive. Is there an easy way to do this, or would I be best to just reinstall? ...FreeBSD is the only OS, so I don't need to worry about partitions, boot managers, etc. Thanks, Patrick -- Patrick McConnell (patrick@interlog.com) Finger info: http://www.interlog.com/~patrick/finger "640k ought to be enough for anybody." -Bill Gates, 1981
