I just did a netfetch -lv archie . and apart for flattening the machine 
for 10 minutes, produced the desired results. However, it seriously kills
the machine and produces a huge output so don't do it.

There is a file called ls-lRt.Z in the top level which is a complete
recursive listing of all the files on archie.au - it's approx 500k.
