In fact, it was more like:

# mount /newroot 		(new / partition on other disk)
# cd /
# ufsdump 0f - /dev/rdsk/<current-root> | (cd /newroot;ufsrestore xf -)
# cd /newroot/etc
# <edit vfstab to reflect new paths>
# cd /usr/platform/sun4u/lib/fs/ufs
# installboot ./bootblk <raw-path-to-newroot>
# halt

ok setenv boot-device diskX
ok boot

Most of the time I spent tonight was tracking down a bad slice on one of the
mirrored disks that kept barfing but then DS would mark it as clean..
