Dan Well it worked. I backed up Leopard to a sparseimage onto my sons eMac. I had a little scarey moment when I went to clone it back again. I couldn't select the .sparseimage file in SuperDuper. Luckily renaming it .dmg did the trick - phew!
One other tip. Before cloning it back, mount the image before cloning and don't just select the .dmg file. I now have three partitions and three operating systems. 70GB for Leopard, 3.8GB for Tiger and 745MB for OS9 and I can boot into any of them. In fact I am writing this in Tiger while running Software Update to get the last few updates. Simon --- Nice! Let us know how it goes. I haven't tried the backup-into-an-image bit before. - Dan. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to Low End Mac's iMac List, a group for those using G3, G4, G5, and Intel Core iMacs as well as Apple eMacs.
