You can't use SD! to copy a Time Machine backup to a bootable volume, no. It can copy it successfully, and can also store a bootable backup alongside it, but it won't 'restore' a bootable copy from Time Machine's already backed up data... if that's what you're asking.

"restore' a bootable copy from Time Machine's already backed up data"
Yeap. That's exactly what I was asking.
Bummer - it would have reduce the number of back-up hard drives I have :-)

Thanks
