Good is, we cranked out 16 or so cloned drives today -- and they were
put into a different machine afterward, and booted up, to make sure they
played nicely.
We did have a few that were boat anchors (ka-CHUNK ... ka-CHUNK ...
ka-CHUNK ... from the drive is a good hint).
Robert, did you know that, if the drive is bad, your script window just
closes up?
All the clones are in the "Debian cloned drives" box on the shelf, all
labeled with green tape, "Etch 06-16-07".
