dd syntax

2003-07-24 Thread mbaki
Hi all, I have a freebsd 5.1 machine with 2 harddrives ad0 and ad2. I need to duplicate ad2 to a 3rd hardrive so what I did is the following: dd if=/dev/ad2 of=freebsd5.1.bin Now when I'm done dd'ing, I can replace ad2 with the harddrive and issue the command dd if=freebsd5.1.bin of=/dev/ad2
