[TriLUG] DD question, not related

[Vestal, Roy L.]

Welp, that would be a problem. It's the / drive and we're going to DD from
2GB to a 4GB, and then make the 4GB the boot/active drive AND
then...ugh...Did I mention it's UFS?

Note that this only works if the hard drives are exactly alike and
are partitioned exactly alike.   Otherwise, you'll end up with
garbage...

 This would be a very good time to hang out with the Open Source 
 people, before they get formally reclassified as a national security 
 threat. -- Bruce Sterling
