Personally, I think you are asking for a lot of extra work doing that (and maybe some problems getting the files back together). Either just back up to floppies (using however many you need) or buy a cheap 64 meg USB stick and backup to that (if the old machine has a USB port). PAF knows when more than one floppy is used for backup and can handle the restoration to the new machine. However, do not get rid of your PAF files on the old machine until you know that the new one is working properly and your file has been backed up from that new one.
