you would have to sysinstx the machine if you're using fat and i assume
you either have the exact video setup or its configured as vga (safest).

i used to do the same thing as you're doing but i used hpfs and BA/2.
all i had to do was restore and reboot. after awhile we needed more and
more done so i bought a $2,000 3-drive duplicator and that works great
to (even on different geometry drives which tend to show up as time goes
by).
