[Ti] Bootable USB Drive for PB G4TI

[Suzanna]

Oh.... that is what happened. I had an external hard drive that I  
used to clone my TiBook hd with as a back up (cloning creates a  
bootable copy) and ever since I upgraded to 10.4.8, I can't get it to  
recognize the external drive anymore. This must be the reason, no?

I am planning on buying the new desktop mac and use my tibook as my  
back up drive. Do you guys think that will work ok? Cloning from the  
desktop to the laptop?

I sure am glad I found this list! Lots of great info, thank you!

As far as I know USB drives are NOT bootable on any newer Macs. What  
I use is a Firewire 2.5" drive enclosure with a 40gig laptop hard  
disk.  The Enclosures are around $40 without the drive and will use  
just about any spare 2.5" HDD.
