Is it possible to clone a SCSI drive to SCSI2SD

RE: Is it possible to clone a SCSI drive to SCSI2SD

SCSI2SD isn't supported on stuff like the O2 and up. Only 50-pin SGIs use it, and it's possible the O2's PROM may not permit that to be done.

You should just get a more modern SCSI disk.

As for cloning, yes, but it's not for the faint of heart. It involves xfs_dump and xfs_restore.

Technical problems should be sent my way.
