This is a weird one, because we’re still working towards repairing the FFC and getting the Floppies as well as the Finch to work on the system, but in order to do that, we gotta spin up the Hawk drive and do some pretty hairy stuff. First of all, there’s some great diagnostics on the Hawk, but it’s terrifying using them with our only physical copy of the OS. So, let’s get that copy of the OS onto another platter, but nothing ever goes smoothly, does it?
