To answer your question about my computer: flatpanel iMac (tray loading CD drive) about two years old: 1 Ghz powerpc G4, 768 MB RAM. One explanation might be that both times I booted from the external USB drive, I also had my external firewire (without a bootable partition) hooked up. This is the novice in me again, but I am wondering whether the computer detects the firewire drive and the USB drive, and goes ahead and boots from the USB drive thinking it is the firewire. Lastly, some SuperDuper!-related questions (my apologies for so far taking up your time with hardware issues)... 1) If I do regular backups is there any reason to do a safety clone? 2) The safety clone is useless (if it's on a partition of the internal HD) if the whole HD crashes, right? So the safest backup strategy is to backup to an external drive regularly, yes? 3) I love SuperDuper! (not really a question). Cheers, Steve |
