Disk Imaging Needed
The answer to the Mac OS X backup problem is simple -- Partition all drives as UFS. Excellent back-up tools (tar, gzip, dump and restore) ship with the OS, but do not function on HFS+. I've gotten excellent performance out of 10.1 on UFS, plus the reliability and flexability one expects from a UNIX system.

Yes. I agree that UFS is probably the way to go...in the future. Besides simplifying backups and improving performance as it also offers greater security in that you can't muck with it from the OS9 side as you can with an HFS+ partition.

Actually, Classic still won't work under UFS. I've actually trashed Classic and it's preferences a long time ago, so I forget about it sometimes. If you really need to run old apps, you're stuck with HFS+. |
