It makes since if you are using the same CF card and the specs can be 
assumed. However if the size/setup of the cards are not exactly the
same, you have a huge problem. Floppies are a safe assumption to 'dd'
to, but 8M,16M,32M,64M,... CF's are generally not. What kind of surprise
would you get putting a 8M image on a 64M CF card?
