Long time ago in a state far away, I was working at the computer center at college. One of the freshmen programming classes used our batch machine. The professor gave them a sample JCL block to put around their card decks, that started with: //JOB the professor's name At the bottom of the instructions, it said to replace her name with theirs. But we all know that students can't read! uh oh. Picture it... The night before the first assignment is due. The student area of the computer center is *crowded* with kids hyped on coffee and Jolt. The flood of decks is so big, the batch machine is falling farther and farther behind. Turnaround is over an hour. We take a rack of cards into the machine room and run them. An hour+ later, we come out with the cards and box or three of printout, rip'n'sort 'em, then give the whole mess to a runner to take the 'em up to the professor's office -- because every job had her name on it!

Re: system backups
As I said, a few months back people on a list (can't remember which, I guess I'm on to many) there was a discussion about how CCC would not make a boot drive of OS X.4. It may have been fixed since then. I tried and it would not boot, it copied data but could not boot. But SuperDuper! made me good boot drives. I have duped them on to firewire drives and can boot this Pismo from 4 different partitions I have on one drive. Did a similar thing with a pocked drive too. -- Alan Miller I had no problem cloning my 10.4 startup partition a few times using Carbon Copy Cloner. What problem did you have? In my case, CCC gave several errors claiming not to be able to copy certain files (all belonging to the System folder, if I remember correctly). I tried several times and errors seem to affects random files. I eventually I gave up and created a Disk Image of the boot partition instead, burned it to DVD and I am able to restore at will on any partition using Disk Utility. cheers, gianfranco -- Lust, ein paar Euro nebenbei zu verdienen?

Re: system backups
Sandra, With OS-X just backing up your drive may not give you a drive that you can start from (which you could do prior to OS-X). Here are ways to make a backup OS-X drive that can be a startup disk: 1. Use Carbon Copy Cloner, or 2. Use Tri-Backup, or 3. Use Apple Disk Utility (with care) as follows: a. Open Disk Utility. b. Select the startup volume from the left side list. c. Click on the Restore tab in the main window. d. Drag the startup volume to the Source entry field. e. Select the backup volume from the left side list and drag it into the Destination entry field. f. Check the box to Erase Destination (if you have not already formated the backup drive). g. Double check that you have the proper drives selected and then click on the Restore button. h. Go get a cup of coffee; this will take a while. Once you have a backup drive capable of being used as a startup disk, you and do the same thing to copy the backup drive to your new internal drive.
