I am going to receive an external drive for my NeXTstation. I would
like to have the entire software release 2.0 on my external drive and
be able to boot from either the internal drive or the external drive
in case one of them fails. 

Can I simply takes the external drive to my school's NeXT support
center, builds the drive with their machine, copies the software to the
drive, and takes the drive home and connect it? What should I do if I
would like to switch the boot drive?

Thanks in advance!
