ok. that has worked! thanks.
Just a small question. Instead of copying to a image file, how do you
copy to a disk partition?

# If you don't wish to use loopback images then you may specify an
# LVM volume group here instead
#
##
# lvm = skx-vg
But I'm not using lvm, I'd like to install to /dev/sda8 (for example).

Cheers.
Chris.
