I tried 
http://btmgr.webframe.org/ and while it looks real good, it
would not let me select the bootable CD.  Rather than mess
with the bios on this old machine, I pulled out the drive,
put it in another box and partimage'ed it that way.  If the
machine gets trashed, I can restore the data to some other
machine.

Thanks for the help
