Re: Problem creating DR bootable disk



Hmmm

I'm probably making obvious suggestions but... I think I'd be inclined to do a fresh install of the same OS version on the target disk. See if that boots OK.

If it does then something in your mirror tools is the issue.
If it doesn't then it's a bootstrap problem.

Re: boot manager

I'm not a bootstrap expert but I was thinking that grub seems pretty flexible and might help out in this case. I have not installed it with FreeBSD but I have it on a FreeDOS/Linux machine. There are others also.

What happens when you pull the raid card?

Same thing.

Choice of boot manager?

Doesn't the -B option just install the standard boot manager?
