Am working from my SD clone at the moment (testing it) periodically.

Is it advisable to allow TimeMachine to run now? Or is it better not to run it from the clone?

Didn't occur to me to ask this before?

many thanks,
tuni

It creates a totally separate backup, so it shouldn't do anything but take more disk space.

k - just wondered if there really would be any purpose or problem to doing a*TM backup from the clone? Guess I would rather not use up the extra disk space on my external drive that I use solely for TM. BTW, I just tested using 1PW from the SD clone too and it works. Many thanks for helping all of us keep up with all the changes. And, NO, haven't updated to Lion yet ;(
