Hi all,


Maybe not MacOS related, but I'm looking how to clone an entire

device drive drive, regardless filesystems on it,  I need to "simply"

make two hard drive equals, if have read about 'dd' command but is a

bit hard to understand the options...


in my opinion should be:


dd if=sourceDrive of=targetDrive conv=notrunc


for source and target should I use 'disk' or 'rdisk' ?


can anyone help me or know where to read further docs?


Thanks

Amedeo
