Ha..  Usually when I do a full setup on a system I do a Norton Ghost
backup of the whole drive, if at all possible. I like to still use
partitions, which is going out of style, and put all the OS files
on one drive and then back that up to a single Bootable CDR.
At least then most of the working parts can be easily restored even
if access to some things may be 'broken' if they were added later.
