Hi Glenn,
The filesystems of BORPH vs non-BORPH BEE2s are actually the same.
The differences that enable BORPH are in the kernel, which is
included in the BEE2_ctrl base package and is built into the bitstream
and .ace file.
The CF filesystem setup instructions are here:
http://bee2.eecs.berkeley.edu/wiki/Bee2DebianRootFs.html
I'm pretty sure a bitlevel copy from one card to the other will also
do the trick.
NSF mounting the root is enabled on a per-board basis depending on what
you program into the EEPROM for the boot command string, so you can put
your root filesystem on the card, then opt to use NFS later.
Thanks,
Henry

There are 3 partitions on the BEE2 card:
FAT with the sysace file
EXT2 partition with the root filesystem
SWAP partition
You can create these partitions and then just copy the files across from
one to the other (make sure to copy everything including the /dev/ nodes)

Hello,
I would like to make a duplicate of my BEE2 Compact Flash card. How
are the file systems on it arranged? The /etc/fstab and df -h outputs
do not show the root file system. I am posting this to the CASPER list
rather than BEE2 because my understanding is the CASPER BORPH
filesystem is somewhat different from what the other BEE2 users use
(with nsf mounting or something).
Should I just do a bitlevel copy of the Compact Flash or can I archive
the files in a readable format?
Thanks,
Glenn
