Problem

[joemac]

DUH!!!!

i am so friggin dense!

for some reason i've been FIXED on the notion that i had to run the leopard os/utility from another drive OTHER than the s/d! drive...

of course NOW you've cleared the cob webs...

-start from clone
-open s/d!
-click 'back up all drives with s/d!

ok, i'm on it!

but i did JUST finishing installing a clean fresh copy of leopard on the target drive.

can i just ignore it and do my s/d! duty?

and do you have any insight into WHY the process froze up using the disc utility?

thanks again
