[X-Newbies] Carbon Copy Cloner

[Mark Taintor]

Richard,
This wasn't exactly your question, but I recently did this, using 
SuperDuper as my backup/cloning software. I had a 40 GB hard drive that 
was  nearly full, I installed a much larger additional, internal drive 
which I cloned and made my new startup drive. It couldn't have been 
simpler and worked wonderfully with the exception that I had to fix my 
items on the dock so that they'd work the way I was used to. In 
addition, some of my browsers continued to download to my old hard 
drive until I changed those settings in the preferences. Otherwise, 
very simple.
Sorry, can't help with CCC, but consider this another testimonial for 
SuperDuper. It's worth the money in my book.
Regards,
Mark
