Cloning OpenBSD disks
Hello,
I`m a 'newbie' to this list, so I pre-emtively apologize for any lack of etiquitte specific to this list.
I`m looking for a *fast* way to clone my OpenBSD2.9 disks so that I can keep a master set 'up my sleeve' in case of emergency. I`m working with SparcI`s and SparcII`s here and don`t have the time for compilation, and installation of custom software etc. if (god forbid) a drive or two should go on me ... which has been happening ALOT around my work recently. Right now I`m doing a (VERY) basic installation, overlaying my partitions, hanging the drives off the back of another machine, mounting them and "find . | cpio -pdmv `ing" and it seems to be taking almost as long as doing a fresh install.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
