What backup software and partitioning do you recommend? On 10.5 TimeMachine is
the best choice I guess, but what to use on 10.4 and ealier, and on 8.x/9.x?
On the classic Mac OS, my fav was Retrospect Express. Before that,
DiskFit Pro.
On OS X... CarbonCopyCloner rulz.
Time Machine is cute, and good for automatic mostly-pain-free hourly
incrementals. But it is nowhere near as reliable as a solid complete
***bootable*** clone, such as one made by CCC or SuperDuper.
