Hello,

I have freebsd 14 install on UFS partition on  256 GB GPT disk and I want to move it to a 128 GB UFS partition on another 512GB GPT disk that contains windows 11 and Fedora 39 , I have cloned my system using ‘ dump | restore ‘ but I can’t find a way to make freeBSD boot-loader show the cloned system to boot into it as I have the 2 disks on my laptop and I want to make the 256 disk for data only and the other for multi booting using rEFInd
any help is appreciated 
how to create a boot entry for the cloned system?

My Disk structure 

ada0
msdos 300MB EFI with rEFInd 
UFS 256 GB FREEBSD 14 <— current system 

ada1
500GB freeSpace (I deleted that due to bug on windows installer that prevented installation to continue due to multiple EFI present on my laptop)
ada1p2 150 GB NTFS WINDOWS 11
ada1p3 128 GB EXT4 Fedora Linux
ada1p4 100 GB exFat shared Data
ada1p5 100 GB UFS <—- target for clone 


Thanks
amr
