just a follow-up....i've received a number of replies (thank you
everyone!) and am looking at how everyone attempts to solve the
problem.

i hope to get a good basic job assembled in a couple of days (provided
i don't have any more machines go belly-up....) and will post it back
here (or depending on size....uh....find some place to put it (jazz?
invent3k?)).

given what i've seen so far, i think some shops "really get it" -- that
is, they could take the output from their recovery job and confidently
recover a box.  i also think many shops are 'in deep doo-doo' and
that's why i want to make this job available for public review and
comment.  if we all study this job, i think we'll collectively develop
the 'gold standard' for recording configuration information for mpe
systems.

stay tuned....         - d
