By the way, if someone actually attaches a raw Qubide IDE harddisk 
to a PC in order to extract an image file with DD:

Since 68K CPU's are big endian, while x86 is little endian, it might 
be required to do some conversion. Not sure about the QL, but on 
Q40/Q60, access to the IDE data registers is big endian!

It might be required to swap every pair of bytes of input data, for 
which DD has the "swab" commandline option.
