Hi Severin

As I said in my post about upgrading to 10.5.2 which killed my 2ghz G5, I did have a time machine back up but when I booted from the 10.5 DVD the back up was not seen!! Luckily I use superduper so was able to restore from that.

So I suggested that who ever uses Time machine as the only means of recovery so do a test to make sure it was valid.

regards

roger

Does a Time Machine backup achieve the same as a bootable mirror when doing a reinstall with Leopard? Can anyone report having successfully done this?
