[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 732542, member: 42497"] Well that depends on what model machine you have. PowerPC will boot only from firewire and the external drive must be partitioned in Apple Partition Map format. USB 2 is too slow. USB 2 will boot Intel machine, from memory. Use Toast to copy DVD, or in Leopard's case DL, put original discs in a safe place and for day to day and maintenance use, the copy does the trick. [/QUOTE]
