Hi Gurus,
i will have to clone my boot (having the /, /var, /usr,
/export/home and /opt filesystems) disk on E450 on Solaris 9. i am wondering
will the following steps work:-

1) prvtoc /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s2 | fmthard -s - /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s2
2) use newfs to create the filesystems on the c0t1d0
3) ufsdump 0uf /dev/rdsk/c0t1d0s2 /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s2
4) use install boot to create the bootblocks.

please help me with this. Thanks in Advance. i will summarize.

thanks
Prabir.
