installworld to directory other than "/"

2003-01-22 Thread Alexey Koptsevich
Hello, I would like to make installworld to some directory other than "/", e.g., to directory "/new", while the old system is working. The only way to do that which I can think of is - copy "/", /usr and /var to /new - chroot /new - make installworld from there Is there more easy/elegant way?
