Eh?  That's all I ever *have* done with ccd.  Surely I'm not all *that*
unusual.  (The time ccd was most useful to me was probably when I had
to deal with a disc with a bunch of hard errors, in the interim before
a replacement was available.  I defined a bunch of partitions, leaving
the errors in the holes between partitions, and used a ccd to weld the
fragments together into a functional disk.)
