hi dave,
hey do we get timed OUT here?
i keyed in a post but got the 'log in screen again' and my post was lost...
searched a few dozen pages didn't see my question, and this seemed like a close enough thread...
-large external firewire drive, small macbookpro drive
i'd like to partition the external in thirds...
1. for timemachine
2. for s/d! clone
3. for another copy of the s/d! clone from the same mac.
assuming i use the correct partition scheme and guid journaled format and make each s/d! bootable...
?? will i be able to boot and do a full disaster recovery from either s/d! partition ??
i understand the risks/limits of one physical backup drive.
this will only be for a few months, eventually the 2nd s/d! partition will be for another mac drive.
and i'll have 2 external firewires to alternate weekly.
i always turn t/m OFF when smart updating my s/d! clone.
thanks in advance for the help.
