Well, this is all very well and good, but when I tried that, I had some
serious trouble booting to Finder.  I forget the details.   After messing
with it for a few hours, we just dd'd the A/UX disk to the new drive and
remade the filesystems on the new drive.   Needless to say, this is not
a user friendly installation procedure...
