What is interesting about the 1.4 service disk vs. the serialized 6.0 
service disk is the 6.0 has a much more extensive directory (from the 
image file). Unfortunately the serialization of that drive is the 
problem...and ahving five 9100s I've forgotten WHICH machine the disc 
was serialized for! Am going to figure that out shortly and then play 
with the serial numbers or hand the project off to someone who is more 
familiar with monkeying with this sort of thing.

Where is Corey Stupp these days anyway!
