Hi Tom,
I'm not going to interrupt your interest in solving your issue with udpcast, but I feel that udpcast doesn't really fit your needs in your special case. udpcast hast been built for the purpose to transfer images from a server to one or many clients over the network via multicast (at least that is the case if I am using udpcast). I think you should use tools like "partimage", "dd_rescue" or "dd" to accomplish your task, since you just don't need the detour over the network. All you need is a LiveCD with the necessary tools on it like Knoppix. I think your issue can be solved with udpcast also, but I don't get why you should use it in that case.
Kind regards Jens
