Ah, OK. The problem you might run into is that the imaging framework in OSX is buggy in 10.3.9 -> 10.4.2. Sparse Images will be creatable, but conversion to DMG tends to fail. That's another reason to use a sparse image.
But, sparse images don't get block copied on restore. So, they're not faster than a regular file-by-file copy direct to a volume.
