Hello,
The co-host that i use to host my email, web and DNS doesn't offer
the option of using FreeBSD. This isn't really a problem per-se,
but i would *really* rather use FreeBSD as it is what i am
accustomed to and most comfortable using.
So, off to my question. They offer a "rescuemode" where i can boot
into and have full access to the disks. Do you think it would be
possible to maybe create an image of an existing BSD install with
the same disk makeup, etc. and dd it to the remote disk? Have any
of you ever attempted this before? The procedure that i was
planning to use involved using dd to pipe the image over a netcat
connection.
Thanks!
