[Dxspider-support] Building new PI Cluster

[Michael Walker]

Thanks Keith

I did figure out the 'sha' problem and made the same diagnosis you did.  It
must come from those days of getting CLX up and running.  :)

I'm pretty sure I got the directory issue figured out, and while I didn't
do it the way you recommend, I was successful late last night.

I then saved the image at the point that you need to edit DXVars.pm.  So,
if anyone wants a 4G Pi image with DX Spider on it, let me know and I will
park it on my FTP site.

If I want to clone my current system over to this system, do I just have to
tar up everything in /spider and copy it over?
