hmmm... ok, thinking about it, this may be exactly what I need.
I can do a dump of the device, pipe it via ssh to the new system
straight into restore
dump /dev/md1 -f - | ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] "cd /mnt && restore -rf - "
which will take a while (days). Once it completes, I can shutdown
the cluster, do a final rsync, copy across the extended attributes...
and bring the new node up as the old oss.

I don't think you can ro mount the fs while it's in use, hence the
suggestion of the e2fs dump.
