Doing another drive upgrade and was wondering if I could copy the dynamic data stuff and the config.ini BEFORE I copy the FID's over. I wanted to get the easy and quick stuff done first, then start the FID copying and go to bed. Ideally, when I wake up it will be finished and I'll just have to RO in hyperterminal put it together and do a quick sync in Emplode. So can I copy the DD and config first?

Just carefully type all the commands into the buffer and they'll run consecutively while you sleep. It doesn't matter what order you copy the data, to answer your question.

Yes, absolutely. Just don't try booting the player and synching or doing database rebuilds until you've got all the fids moved over, too. If the fids and the dynamic data partition don't match, I dunno what the results would be.
