You can do it, but it's a pain. Basically you have to boot in single-user, mount your ZFS on an alternate root, clear out and rebuild the /dev disk links, and fix up grub. When you boot, grub should show you 4 boot choices, if you only see two, I'll be you forgot to run installgrub against the new disk? -A _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
