Sorry I cannot continue with this topic. Techniques that I might use in unix may not be relevant to cloning in Linux.

I think you need a Debian Linux expert who knows about "xen" and Linux server cloning. Please make it clear whether you still have the original computer intact?

BOOTPC(8)						      Debian GNU/Linux Manual							 BOOTPC(8)

NAME
bootpc - bootp client SYNOPSIS
bootpc [--bootfile file] [--dev device] [--verbose] [--debug] [--server addr] [--hwaddr addr] [--returniffail] [--waitformore length] [--in2host addr] [--serverbcast] [--help] DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the bootpc command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution (but may be used by others), because the original program does not have a manual page. bootpc is a boot protocol client used to grab the machine's IP address, set up DNS nameservers and other useful information. OPTIONS
--bootfile file Tell the server to use file as the boot file. --dev device Use device to communicate with the server. --verbose Be verbose. --debug Produce debugging output. --server addr Use the IP address addr to communicate with the server. --hwaddr addr Use addr as our hardware address rather than what the operating system gives us. --returniffail Terminate the program if a failure occurs. By default bootpc will ask the user to press a key if the request did not succeed. --waitformore length Wait for more responses when one is received. bootpc will wait for at most length seconds. This is probably only useful for debug- ging. --in2host addr Takes an address and returns useful bits of the name after lookup, this was a separate program, but it is more compact to have both together. --serverbcast Tell the server to send back a broadcast reply. This is necessary on Linux 2.1 and 2.2. --help Display the usage of bootpc. AUTHOR
This manual page was written by Herbert Xu <herbert@debian.org>, for the Debian GNU/Linux system (but may be used by others). BOOTPC
