Billy, |

First - WOW! Great stuff. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Second - yes, I know it's not marked ~amd64 but I figured I could |
| 24 |
try it. If it worked, great. If it didn't I'm basically where I was |
| 25 |
before I tried. No harm no foul. |

Unfortunately the patch doesn't look like it applies cleanly in my case: |

Being that I'm not a programmer AT ALL ;-) I probably should not go |
| 42 |
too deply into this whole thing. It will likely be a huge time sink |
| 43 |
that I'll never extricate myself from. On the other hand I'm very |
| 44 |
willing to spend time testing software, like mac-fdisk. I've got 5 |
| 45 |
1394 drives. A couple are jsut test drives for exactly this sort of |
| 46 |
thing. I'm really happy to do that. |

Thanks a lot for sharing how you're making it work, even at the |
| 49 |
somewhat reduced level of functionality that it seems to be working |
| 50 |
at. I appreciate the info and help. |

cheers, |
