Hi all,

I am running 4.3 on an ALIX board, with filesystems laid out as

Filesystem     Size    Used   Avail Capacity  Mounted on
/dev/wd0a      120M   49.1M   64.5M    43%    /
/dev/sd0a      3.9G    3.1G    623M    84%    /usr
/dev/sd0d     1005M   28.0K    955M     0%    /tmp
/dev/sd0e      126M   81.6M   37.8M    68%    /var
/dev/sd0f      126M   14.1M    105M    12%    /var/log
/dev/sd0g      251M    5.5M    233M     2%    /var/mail
/dev/sd0h      251M    119M    119M    50%    /var/mysql
/dev/sd0i      9.8G    4.3G    5.1G    46%    /var/www
/dev/sd0j     19.7G   16.5G    2.2G    88%    /home
/dev/sd0k     37.9G   21.1G   14.9G    59%    /backup

The wd0 is a CF card, holding the root filesystem.
The sd0 is a USB disk, holding everything else.

Now I got me a bigger disk, and I want to transfer everything
that sd0 holds to this new disk, leaving wd0 as the root.

(The reason I don't simply transfer only /home to the new disk
is that the disk is powered via USB, and having two such disks
in this ALIX board requires external power, which I want to avoid.
One disk is fine.)

What I did is reboot into single with the both disks plugged in,
the new one recognized as sd1; fdisk and disklabel on sd1, replicating
what sd0 has, except for bigger /home; then dump all filesystems into
/backup as

-rw-------  1 root  wheel  17684930560 Jun 21 23:19 dump.home
-rw-------  1 root  wheel     52029440 Jun 21 21:11 dump.root
-rw-------  1 root  wheel     91412480 Jun 21 21:12 dump.var
-rw-------  1 root  wheel     14581760 Jun 21 21:12 dump.var.log
-rw-------  1 root  wheel      5806080 Jun 21 21:12 dump.var.mail
-rw-------  1 root  wheel    124487680 Jun 21 21:13 dump.var.mysql
-rw-------  1 root  wheel   4570511360 Jun 21 21:38 dump.var.www

and then the obligatory newfs on /dev/sd1X, cd into it, and restore.
Everything went fine.

Then I rebooted with only the new disk plugged in, which gets
recognized fine as sd0 (now), the system boots ok, and I get
log in.

BUT every command now gives

        floating point exception (core dumped)


Any ideas? Is there something else I need to do?
Please note that the system does not boot from
the new disk.

        Thanks
