Backing up a PowerBook G4 to a Mac Pro

[shirtuser1989]

Using Super Duper I backed up my PowerPC based PowerBook G4 to an extra hard drive on my Intel Mac Pro.
After putting in a new hard drive in the PowerBook G4 I restored the files to the new hard drive.
Now when I start the PowerBook G4 I receive an alternating ? and a Mac logo within a folder.
I still have the original hard drive.
What can I do to get the back-up working properly on the PowerBook G4?
Thank you for looking.

It sounds like the new drive isn't properly partitioned. You need to partition it as "Apple Partition Map" using the "Options" button in the Partition tab of Disk Utility...

Thank you dnanian. I partitioned the drive and now I am copying the information to the new hard drive. I will let you know how it goes.

Hmnn. I get the same logo after I partitioned the drive.
Does the name of the volume need to be the same on the new one as it was on the old hard drive?

No, though that's best. You used "Backup - all files" and set the new drive as the startup volume?

Dave, thanks again for your help.

I did choose the option"Backup - all files". I then placed them on one of my hard drives on my Mac Pro. I then put my new hard drive in the notebook. I re-opened SuperDuper! and then choose to copy the back-up I did to the new hard drive.

How do you choose the new drive as the startup volume?
