(This is entirely unrelated to the question I asked, which was explicitly asking how to boot off a Firewire drive. So I forked the thread by changing Subject line.) The fatal flaw to your plan is that it requires me doing all that. Manually. Manual backs are almost always out of date. (yes, to the 3 of you who do manual backups regularly, your discipline is impressive, but most of us fail to meet your level of existance). SuperDuper automatically updates *just the changed files* every night at 3:30a.m. All I have to do is make sure the FW drive is attached. That was worth the $30 to me.
