And another update. I plugged all the equipment in yesterday while straightening out my office and one of the two cloned boxed worked?!? So, I pulled it's drive and hooked it up to my backend and made an image. Then I wrote that image to the final box. No joy. I get the flashing appletv with question mark at boot. I am starting to wonder if there might be something wrong with the final hard drive.
