dd copy of FreeBSD-7.2 won't boot

I have a remote server that was dd copied from one hard drive to another -
essentially the same size. The disk device name (ad4) is the same but the
geometry for the new drive has a CHS of 969021/16/63
On booting it hangs at:
F1 FreeBSD
Boot: F1
I copied the MBR with 'boot0cfg -B -opacket ad4' just to be sure but no joy.
fbsd fdisk reports start 63, with CHS beg: 0/1/1 end: 1023/15/63.
Any help on direction to solve this?
Thanks.
