Somthing that might aid here.. i have a 128x64 LCD screen on the front
of my server so i can display info/prompt messages if required, this
could be used to at least prompt the user when its safe to remove the
disk etc so that it is just a case of plug it in, let the scripts run
and watch the LCD for status/errors/when to unplug
