Non-512-byte sector drive cloning?

NetBSD (install doable for that one.)  You'll need to put something together
that can talk to the raw scsi
 interface and issue your own read commands. 
This isn't THAT difficult.  Build a kernel with nothing but sg on the
relevant ID/LUN and then use something like cdparanoia as an example of
how to issue your own SCSI commands.

Well, I should say, it shouldn't be that difficult.  I haven't tried it
myself...though, come to think of it, I have a floppy drive that shows
up as a SCSI device with 256-byte sectors which might make a decent
test case.

If I can find the silly thing.
