Thanks. If you look at the stand alone utilities I uploaded to bitsavers, you can see exactly how the serialization works. I was just having some trouble getting Ray's sector editing utility to recognize the dc42 stand alone disk image. Digging into that was going to be this afternoon's project.

I should have all of the bits to rebuild the kernel, so I was going to try modifying the Profile driver to work with extended size IDEfile and X/Profile disk volumes.
