List - 
  I've been living with a 10Gb hard drive as my OpenBSD box for a couple of years now, and I have another, much, much larger drive I want to replace this old one with.  Trick is, I don't want to reload everything - too much down time... how do I do it?  I only have 1 drive in there now, I can plug in the 2nd one if necessary - but how do I get the boot information, etc over... and then get it to boot off that drive?  Can I use dd?
