Fun Times, Reverting to a backed-up HDD

03/29/2009 by TJ | 0 comments

Joy to me….
In short, I had cleared my main internal HDD to install Leopard. Unfortunately I feel my trusty ole’ mirror door dual G4 is just not up for Leopard-esque computing.

So, now I’m fighting with trying to get my backed up Tiger HDD on an external FireWire drive cloned back to my internal HDD! Fun times indeed.

***UPDATE*** removed drive from FireWire enclosure and set it up internally; copy to main drive went smooth besides one file which encountered a I/O error. In the end I’m satisfied with the final results!

Now, just need to replace my FireWire enclosure. Leaning towards NAS, any good recomendations?
