Need to copy all the OS files (many of them invisible) and get their permissions right. With OS X this is a very tricky thing to get right. I have always found Retrospect over-complex and unrelaible. Carbon Copy Cloner v3 is out today. Nice price: free. It is famous for doing it right. ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
