Now why didn't I think of that?  c.c  Obvious in retrospect...

A few potential hazards: will booting from an alternate disk bring the
wrath of IT down on us?  And will the latency of rebooting the
relevant boxes interfere with other activities that might use them?

It's probably possible to work around these, though, so that looks
like the best option unless there's a convenient spare box around.

Many thanks.  :-)
