Hi,

I am going to install Boot Camp and hence, XP. :D

Any idea I can use SuperDuper to back up the two partitions (Mac and er... PC)?

Thanks in advance for the info.

Sorry, Gotenk -- SD! only backs up HFS+ volumes. Your BootCamp partition will be either FAT32 or NTFS.

Our copying expertise is with Macintosh volumes. I'd seriously suggest using a Windows-based backup utility to back up your Windows volumes -- they'll be thoroughly tested against Windows... and that expertise and testing is important.

Note that a virtualization solution like VPC or Parallels can be backed up with SD!, because the file system is simulated, and stored in a single file (or files) on your Mac, under HFS+.

Hope that helps!
