I never realized that since my keydisks were always set up a la FAQ!

Thanks for reading the code! this would do, then
$ dd bs=8192 skip=1 count=4 if=/dev/rsd99z of=backup-keydisk.img
^^^^^^^
though I am going to test this:
$ dd bs=8192 skip=1 count=5 if=/dev/rsd99z of=backup-keydisk.img
^^^^^^^
Thanks, Marcus
