It sounds like you've already started down the ufsdump/ufsrestore route although I agree with gull04 that 'flar' might be easier.
However, it's quite possible to restore a ufsdump onto different hardware provided you know what to look out for.
You should search THIS FORUM for this issue as most of the answers are already on here. Therefore, for starters, here are some threads I've been involved in on this subject which I suggest you read first.

It can be quite tricky if you don't know what might happen but dead simple when you do.
Any further questions just post them back here and hit us with them.
Good luck!
