How to back up until SuperDuper! is ready?
 

Until SuperDuper! is available for Leopard isn't it possible to simply use Disk Utility to duplicate one disk to another? (This is explained in the Disk Utility Help topic "Duplicating a disk".) Do you know of any problems using this procedure, Dave?

It's not something I've tested myself, but it should work.

This is what I've been doing over the past couple of months and (touch wood) I've not had any problems, although I don't half miss smart update.
