  • This thread (and others) which discuss the fact that the clones that SuperDuper! makes under Leopard aren't bootable.
  • This thread, which discusses the fact that smart updates don't work yet under Leopard.
  • This thread, which suggests that file permissions aren't restored properly from a SuperDuper! clone of a Leopard disk.

So yeah, I think it's more than just the fact that the cloned drive isn't bootable. There's at least some potential for data loss (in the form of permissions or other metadata). That should be enough to discourage you from experimenting. It is for me, anyways.
