Hi, i have FreeBSD 6.2 and need to move it on new HDD.
so, questions now:
dump | restore said "no memory for strings" and abandon me(even in multiuser mode), so i move to cp -RpP what it can cause ?
As you can see i have 2 disks attached as masters.
so i get "What is this bios_drive:interface(unit,partition)kernel_name thing that is displayed with the boot help?" as discribed here - http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/install-trouble.html#Q2.11.3.2.
after i type "1:ad(6,a)/boot/kernel/kernel" it`s try to load but ends with some HEX dump and "BTX Halted" message.
Does this old workaround with manual typing path to kernel still work ?

Code:
sysinstall -> fdisk
sysinstall -> label
cp -RpP `find / -depth 1 | grep -v mnt` /mnt
ee /mnt/etc/fstab
in bios: set boot from ad6
