I believe that the above 'if' operand to dd should instead be /dev/da1 (without the 's1' slice). Also, the operand 'of' will need to point to a device, such as /dev/ad12, or a file on a mounted file system, such as /mnt/my_disk_image.img -Brandon _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
