Suggestion for Leopard early adopters

[barrysharp]

I see no harm making enquiries about when SD! will become compatible with Leopard. It a very human thing to want to do - especially if you're running Leopard as many folks are now.

Leopard development was ongoing right up to a week or two before Oct 26. It makes little sense for Shirt-pocket to get into extensive testing of SD! until Apple froze the Leopard GM development. Thus SD!'s late arrival is to be expected. Considering SD! is a backup/restore facility and that many people use it it makes every bit of sense for it to be tested thoroughly. If it takes Shirt-pocket 2 month or 6 months to make it robust and reliable, that's what it takes. We must simply be patient.

I'm running Leopard 10.5.1 and while waiting for SD! for Leopard I'm using Apple's asr for cloning my 10.5.1 boot volume and have /Users on a separate volume and use SD! to clone it as a backup. Not quite the same as simply using SD! all round but it's working for me. I can survive this way for quite a few months and enjoy the Leopard system.
