Everyone,

Thanks for the feedback.  I eventually took out the -a, -I and -J switches
and let the system go.  That seems to have worked.

Using n:/ did a better job of creating an original image.

Using n:/* seems to have compressed some of the down level directories and
files into the root directory.  Thereby destroying the overall original
directory tree.

It did have some problems reading a couple of files off the drive.  I'll
assume they are damaged for the time being.



Many a thanks to everyone,
-Mark Vollmer
