	Well done for getting that far :-)

	This one I think:

	Well, that's effectively what you're doing - but, right now, the way it
works is that we do a minimal install in order to be able to run
replication client which pulls across your snapshot.

	In future this would probably need to be part of the installer itself
in some form - it was just easier to prototype it this way.

Thanks,
Mark.
