        But it seems that the new disk starts empty. If on the second computer
you start with a DOS booting floppy, it can see the NT CD, and start
installation, but I don't see where the NT files which the installation
copies go to. Am I missing something?
        (I'm thinking in a direct installation from the CD. Does building
the installation floppies make a difference?)

Starting point:        (-1)^(-1) = -1
Applying logarithms: (-1)*ln(-1) = ln(-1)
Since ln(-1) <> 0, dividing:  -1 = 1
     (ln(-1) is complex, but exists)
