I have two new disks Seagate ST318438LW 18.4 Gig, that I'm using dd ("dd
if=/dev/rmt/0 of=/dev/rdsk/c0t3d0s0 bs=100b") to copy my root image from a
Seagate ST39236LW 9.2 Gig disk to the new disks. I label, partition,
verify and save the new disks with format. After I run the dd command the
disk takes on the characteristics of the disk the image was copied from,
It's now seen as a 9.2 gig disk with the same partitioning as the 9.2 gig
disk had. I'm doing this while booted with a Solaris 7 or 8 cdrom ("boot
cdrom -s"). I zero out the label and try again same thing happens on both
new disks. What I'm I doing wrong here. Thanks.
Doug
