   My more or less 'ordinary' way of this.

   That matches what I recall from long ago.  As well, depending on what the box   
   is used for, I try to keep the C:\ 'boot' drive as much as possible used for   
   just the operating system stuff.  As well, for years and years I've been a   
   supporter and even developer helper for DFSEE which has been well worth the   
   paid for tool that it is.  I more or less use two different ways to 'back up'   
   and archive complete hard disks for safety purposes. Since I'm highly SCSI   
   oriented as to operations all over whatever, I have for years used the Back   
   Again 2K Server SCSI tape drive operations.  Note that you MUST have the   
   /Server product and update to solve lots of earlier problems with that.  Then   
   on beyond that for many years I've used the DFSEE tools to actually repeatedly   
   clone complete duplicate hard drive backups for critical systems.  As well as   
   take a known completely clean and operational drive for a system that can even   
   be used to duplicate multiple workstation systems for OS/2 on Peer or even   
   full OS/2 network operations.  Which can be reasonably altered with personal   
   tools to become separate ID workstations in the network.  DFSEE is a BEAUTIFUL   
   tool.   
      
   My total involvement in OS/2 networked locations has involved way over 50 OS/2   
   computers in all this and that at the peak of my 'computalife'.  Though as I   
   understand the OS/2 Peer system can't handle more than 16 units in a given   
   network.
