I've got 8.22GB on the source disk. Restore has been running for
over 3 hours. There's been no movement in the copying bar for at
least two hours. I'm transferring through a USB cable. Is this a
normal or abnormal time frame?
Thanks,
George

I'd like to install OS X on an external hard drive, but the

With OS X 10.4 you can use Disk Utility to 'restore' from a
working drive to another one.
Just did this on my Powerbook to copy the system from a smaller
drive to a newer large one.
Carbon Copy Cloner does not work with OS X, and there's no reason
to enable the root account in OS X; in fact it's a dangerous
security breach.
If you ever need a root shell, just execute sudo -s, if you need
to operate a gi program as root, get Pseudo, see Version tracker.

For all the information that you need to install and use Carbon

If Carbon Copy Cloner doesn't work "Mike Bombich" would like to
know and under what conditions.
