Jim doesn't specify what FS(s) all his machines are using. I discovered this when devising a system for ensuring the completeness of my back-ups by testing for the presence of a specific (last) file or directory. As an example, SDFS and Fat32fs differ markedly in the order they copy items elsewhere. Implications probably not mission-critical in Jim's particular case, but are in mine!
