Download and install Microlite Edge.
Microlite Corporation - Home of BackupEDGE 3.x then do a backup to DVD, you may need two disks for the 42gb of disk space used.
Create the emergency boot dvd.
Temporarily replace the 1tb disk and boot from the recovery dvd to do a full restore.
You can do this with the demo version of Edge, but only for 60 days.
When you create the new disk, only use 100gb for the Unix partition rather than the whole terabyte.
Do you have a plan for updating the backup disk with current data, assuming that the application is not read only?
This will not work if your application is copy protected and you cannot re-license it, as files will not have the same inode number on the new disk.
You should expect to spend 4 hours doing this.

getfdprm
getfdprm(1) General Commands Manual getfdprm(1)
Name
getfdprm - print the current format information
Note
This manpage has been automatically generated from fdutils's texinfo documentation. However, this process is only approximative, and some
items, such as cross-references, footnotes and indices are lost in this translation process. Indeed, these items have no appropriate rep-
resentation in the manpage format. Moreover, only the items specific to each command have been translated, and the general information
about fdutils has been dropped in the manpage version. Thus I strongly advise you to use the original texinfo doc.
* To generate a printable copy from the texinfo doc, run the following commands:
./configure; make dvi; dvips fdutils.dvi
* To generate a HTML copy, run:
./configure; make html
A pre-made HTML can be found at: `http://www.tux.org/pub/knaff/fdutils'
* To generate an info copy (browsable using emacs' info mode), run:
./configure; make info
The texinfo doc looks most pretty when printed or as HTML. Indeed, in the info version certain examples are difficult to read due to the
quoting conventions used in info.
Description
getfdprm [drive]
getfdprm prints the current geometry information for drive . This information can be set using setfdprm
