														How can I reproduce my system to another box with the same configuration?

How to create and image if it is using RAID5 with 4x146 SAS drives? isthis possible with RAID5 or can I just image disk by disk (JBOD) willit not affect the contents because it has raid5 technology? and how todo it?

Is there a third party software like "Ghost" in Freebsd? if so how to use it?

During my search I saw frisbee but I don't know how to use it. There are only limited information on how to use it and I can't understand it cause I'm new at using freebsd.

btw I have Freebsd 7 amd64 system.

Dual Core Intel XEON processor 5000 1333MHZ
Intel 5000 chipset family
1 GB min fully buffered memory
4 x 146GB SAS drives
Lan Intel 82563EB dual port controller
LSI 1068 SAS Contoller

I need to have the same configurations on the other servers withoutgoing through the installation stuffs. I believe this is possible but Ido not know how.  

Advance and many thanks.
