An alternative way to create a TechTool Pro 4 eDrive
Authored by: Sven G on Jun 03, '07 08:35:20AM

DasBoot would be a good option only if you have a CD with the most recent version of your favourite utilities; otherwise, you would get an older copy of TTP4, etc.: for example, my TechTool Pro CD has version 4.0.1 on it, while the most recent PPC version is 4.1.2 (and Universal is 4.5.2).

One could always try to modify the original CD, by making a read/write disk image of it and updating its main program (TTP4, in this case) and its Mac OS X: but maybe this would be difficult or even impossible to do, who knows...

It's a real pity that Apple hasn't yet publicly released its tools to make Mac OS X-based bootable CD/DVDs; and the freeware program BootCD doesn't yet work on 10.4.x Tiger (and maybe never will).

Anyway, let's hope it all gets easier with 10.5 Leopard...
