[QUOTE="Wheeljack, post: 673589, member: 37466"] I'd like to complement my Time Machine backups with a complete disk image of my hard drive. I don't have enough free space on my TM partition, so I have to either use another external hdd (which I don't have) or backup to a disk image file. I'm using SuperDuper! 2.5 by the way. My question is: If I create a disk image, is it possible to boot from it in the event of a system crash? Or do I have to boot from the Leopard DVD and restore the image completely before being able to access it? Thanks a lot. [/QUOTE]
