[NTLK] Einstein and old data

Einstein can connect to NCX. You can back up a physical machine and restore the same data on Einstein.

Admittedly, I have not tried that out, but I am pretty sure it should work.

Does anyone know the technical details behind synching, or where to find documentation? Installing the Newton Toolkit gives access to all Soups and Newton Script resources over the serial port. If I knew what to read and where to write it, I could make Einstein connect to a Newton and sync whatever needs to be synched. 

The Hammer debugger gives even more access, but here I don;t have infromation about the connection protocol. I used Hammer from Basilisk to suck PCMCIA cards, but it's tedious. Again, if anyone has docs for the transfer format and commands, it could be automated.
