It'll all fit into far less than that:)  Does your box have two eth
cards?  For sucking what's on my hdd, it might happen more quickly
if we used a direct xover.

It's possible to pack collections of the smaller iso and floppy disk
images onto cdrom images and burn/copy them like that.  For others
that I have on cdrom only, dumping/copying them might take more
time.  My box has a cdrw, that might help.

Meanwhile, I'm hoping that someone at the meet might have a dvd/rw
to allow me to burn a copy of the madrake 9.1 dvd that recently
arrived with a LF mag...

Cheers
Tony
