I have a need to pull a disk that is "dangerously dedicated" from a 7.3R box and attach it via a USB adapter to an 8.1R box. The 7.3 box has some hardware issues and this feels like the easiest way to extract a backup from the drive prior to dinking with it.
Does anyone have a feel for whether this will work? I know the 8.1R sysinstall doesn't understand bdslabeled disks, but I am unsure of the 8.1 kernel will puke on it. Also, is there any interaction with the USB subsystem that will make bdslabeled disks fail?
Thanks.
