BTW, if you copy disk-to-disk on the 'a' partition on something
like a Sun that uses disk labels, be aware that you also copy
the label.  We have a habit of copying the root to a spare partition
every night; and when we got our first Sun we wondered why the
partitioning we had so carefully made on the second drive kept
coming unglued, reverting to the (different) partitioning on the
first drive...
