Hello to everyone, I have 21" Imac running Leopard, and Xp thanks to boot camp. Now I'm trying to boot my Imac from external HD on which I have recovered XP machine image using Acronis. Durring the boot try from external HD Imac is reporting that it doesn't have drivers for boot from external HD, or similar message (no support for boot). Does anyone have experience with this kind of problems. Thanks in advance.

You can't normally boot Windows on a Mac, or any PC really, from an external drive. There are ways around this.
