That was actually my original plan ... then I decided to stick with what I know.
I'm now trying to clone the drive to a 20GB because 2GB really isn't enough ... I thought it might be, but no way.
I've failed once (tried using HDClone within Windows.  Seemed to work but won't boot.  I think if I ran fixmbr or something it may do, but ... no CD drive), now I brought in a floppy drive to boot from and hopefully this time it will work.
