Great suggestion. I did this and it got me in! You da man.
As far as how to use a laptop HD as a drive 2, you can buy an adapter to connect
a laptop HD to IDE in a desktop. Frye's Electronics has those if you have that store
near you. They are only a couple bucks. We use them to clone, or re-image laptop
HDs from time to time when we don't do that through the network.
