It may also be safer
Authored by: bdog on Aug 06, '05 12:26:40AM

I'm not completely sure about this, but I don't think plugging two computers via firewire while both are booted on an old OS doesn't hurt anything. I think FireWire was designed to be good like that. HOWEVER, DON'T PLUG IN TWO MACS VIA USB!! It will be bad! And that's why it's hard to find a type a to a USB cable.

I also confirm in whatever order you do this in it won't cause damage. I've done with with ever model of Mac that supports TDM and never had problems.

keloide, you should have used netboot. Would have been much faster.
