Hi,

random question. I've a sun system running obsd 4.2. I though I didn'

have a scsi card with openfirmware so I installed on an IDE disk and

spent ages configuring the system. It's a mail server also so I don't

have the time to have a few hours of down time.


How would I go about cloning the 80Gb IDE disk which has only a few

Gb's in use to my 73Gb scsi disk? Also what boot variables need to be

set in openfirmware to get it to autoboot from the scsi disk?


thanks


Khalid
