----------------------
In changing the layout, what I do is to vtoc the new disk with the new
layout. I then newfs the partitions and mount them under /1 as they
would
be mounted under /. ie. /1/var will be the new /var and so on.
I then use ufsdump to dump each partition to the new drive.
ufsdump 0f - /dev/rdsk/c#t#d#s# | (cd /1/<matched
filesystem>;ufsrestore xf
-)
Next you need to install the boot block (check man page under
installboot)
Then change your boot-device flag in your eeprom. Now go to
/1/etc/vfstab
and
change the devices to the new drive number.
Now just reboot. ( or you can skip the vfstab step and the boot-device
step,
init 5 the system and swap the two drives in the 1000. and boot the
system.
All thats left is to mirror the drives together.
