I've the impression that given the lack of a new sysadmin contract
the fastest thing here would be to buy a new disk. It can always be
moved to one of the existing machines later (we have space issues
in the download machine if I'm not mistaken?)

Or, how about setting up a new sysadmin contract to do the final VM
migration (and maybe other things, if there's enough budget) ?

BTW: last time I checked I could not find a wiki page with
informations about setting up VMs, is there one ?
