Hello, first post!
I'm still learning BSD/Linux/Unix, but I have a noob-ish type of question.
Here's the scenario.
I have an old PIII server running FreeBSD 4.5 (yes, that old) that I need to migrate to newer hardware, particularly an HP DL360 G4. I was successful in getting a clonezilla image done but restoring it has been a challenge. It seems that 4.5 doesn't recognize the HP disk controller driver because I tried to do a minimal install to do a filesystem restore with dump files (my other migration method) and it doesn't recognize the hd's I have there.
Would I be better off installing a newer version then restoring my dump files onto there or try something else with clonezilla?
Thanks again for any feedback!
