Tim,
Excellent information. Since I’m very new to any terminal stuff, may I ask a 
couple more questions?

1. How do I get to the terminal command line quickly?

2. If I do use the pseudo bless command  string to designate my other volume to 
be the next boot, will that be a permanent change, or will everything go back 
to normal after a subsequent reboot?

If you need any other assistance creating the shell script, let us know.

Later…
