Yes...jda and I already had this conversation.

I'm off to Lake Tahoe for the rest of the week.
But I'll ask Rick Jones if he can replace it with the "second"
disk from another system. Then from the console someone will
just need to fixup the network, add /etc/init.d/firewall, and 
mount /home. If that's all a bit much for someone, it will have
to wait until I'm back in 10 days and can head down to cupertino.

Note that /home on gsyprf11 wasn't doing too well either.
