Booting from Firewire

[merc669]

Currently running 10.5.1 but not real happy. I have a full backup on an external when I used "Superduper" of 10.4.10. What is the easiest way to get the backup restored to my HD? Or, How do I restore from the "Firewire"? I will wait for a while before going back to 10.5. Thanks!!

Shut down, connect the FW drive. Start up, holding the option key. Choose the FW drive, and it should boot into Tiger. Open SuperDuper, and do what you did to clone Tiger, but instead clone from the external to the internal 🙂
