No, I thought that would need me to format and partition in advance. Are you 
saying that Restore would honor the two different filesystems? That would be 
worth a try, if I had a win installation that worked...

Ah well, since I have limited access to that building, I just spent 2 hours 
there and got 3 macs cloned. Tomorrow I'll do whatever I can get done with the 
resources they've provided. Feels a bit like I'll be there for weeks, 
struggling with this thing though. Glad I didn't bid on this, the original 
premise was 'how long will it take to clone 5 macs identically from a ready 
volume?" - hah!
