Supplemental:
   This program creates logical copies of hard drives, as opposed to "dd"
   image copies.  Therefore it does not rely on matching drive geometeries,
   does not copy unused parts of the drive and the copy is defragmented.
   This script assumes the drives use Logical Block Addressing (LBA) mode,
   and are only one partition, and that partition is QNX of course.
   Licenses and "bootability is preserved.  A log of is saved in /tmp/log.

   Only tested with QNX 4.24, single partition, LBA, IDE drives only.
   The complete procedure to copy drives involves the following steps:
   1. Insert the master (source) and slave (blank) hard drives.
      Depending of the machine setup, slave drives usually needs to
      have a jumper removed.
   2. Boot QNX in a safe mode where there are no programs running that
      may asynchronously write to the hard drive during the following
      procedure.  If you can't guarantee this, you should use a QNX
      boot floppy and mount the hard drive manually.
   3. Login as root.
   4. Verify the Master drive has the kernel built to force LBA option
      during boot up.  Check /boot/build/hard.?? has the line
      "Fsys.eide fsys -h 64,63", (i.e, sectors,heads for LBA mode.)
   5. Run this script.
