Sorry if I wasn't clear - I'm just trying to create a backup of the PowerBook hard disk onto a _disk image_ on the iMac (stored in the iMac filesystem). Not trying to overwrite anything on the iMac, just trying to use 50G of the 650G available iMac disk space as a copy of the PowerBook volume.

My plan was to then mount the resulting disk image and decide what to migrate to the iMac.

But I want to make a copy of the entire PowerBook volume to protect against a disk failure.
