Nope. I've looked at dump and tar, and have looked at the faq. Those
suggestions seem to only work with the contents of the filesystems.
What I want to do is to take machine A which has a swap partition plus
/dev/wd0a
/dev/wd0d
/dev/wd0e
/dev/wd0f
and copy that over to machine B which has a swap partition plus
/dev/wd0a
/dev/wd0d
but rather than just copying the files between existing filesystems as
rsync, tar and dump do, I would like to completely overwrite the target
device so that it ends up with the same partitions as the source.
