So, clearly dd'ing the drive to another drive won't work.
How can I replicate the boot block and partition table from my
existing drive onto a new one in freebsd?
In solaris, I'd use prtvtoc | fmthard, then dd...
Thanks :)

I have used dd to image a drive many times before in freebsd. It works
like a champion and will boot up just fine. I may have misunderstood
your mail but if not then it will work.
Well, maybe my weird over ssh calling a setuid program that calls a
script dd was flawed somehow. I'll do it

Removing 'kernel /boot/loader' and adding 'chainloader +1' (instead of
