Hi All,
I finaly have a complete server disk (blank one).
I was wondering what 'copy' strategy people would recomend.
i.e how to copy a completly bootable server disk (75Gig SCSI) to another
identical disk. I have lots of server connections and SCSI
connections, so thats not an issue.
I have a Copy of Norton Ghost (Systemworks 2003), or I can use rsync (?).
Any step by step would be appreciated.

This has been hashed out 2-3 times in the last couple of months.
Most of the subject lines used the term "clone" or "cloning", though.
My strategy: set up a disk with sysinstall (or via CLI with fdisk,
bsdlabel, newfs, etc.) and use dump(8) piped to restore(8)...fast,
geometry independent.
YMMV,
