I have a machine with a working, up-to-date sarge and a dead woody.
(woody boots but will not access the net -- I suspect it doesn't
have the right driver after a hardware upgrade)
I wanted to start a testing installation to replace woody.
Unfortunately, all the user files are on the pertition with the dead woody.
I'd like to reduce the number of necessary backups by one.
