I have CCC attempting to clone the "good" B&W's system as I type this. Tonight, I will see if I can transfer the cloned system to the "evil" B&W.
Why not connect the EvilB&W to the GoodB&W in firewiree target mode and use CCC to just clone it directly?
What I did last night appeared to work. The system would boot and all. I just assumed that I used two systems that were too different: processors, graphics cards, etc. I don't know enough about OSX to know how much it customizes the install on each machine.
It doesn't, which is why I was able to simply clone a Gigabit Ethernet G4 directly to a brand new dualllie 2gHz G5 without any hassles at all.
After booting from the Panther CD I selected the image from the external drive and the OS 10.2 partition for restoring. Like I said, it "seemed" to work.
You know, I'm wondering if that isn't the problem there, if the 10.3 restorer is doing something odd. Are you going to install 10.3 on this system? If so, then just do an archive and install of 10.3 after restoring.
