Jim,
I use a Firelite and Superduper to backup my PowerBook, OS 10.4.9, and I CAN boot from the Firelite (just retested to be sure - am writing this with the laptop powered by the OS on the Firelite).

Richard,
It appears that the 7200 rpm Firelite is not sold anymore.

I have one also - beautiful product. 
 
However, I use Superduper to back up with and the Firelite cannot 
act as a boot drive. Works great otherwise. 
 
Can you boot from yours Richard? 
 
My main backup is an OWC Mercury - fantastic machine.
