copying individual computer backups from time machine

[Sossity]

I have a hard drive a that has time machine backups of two computers, I would like to copy one of the computers to anotherdrive b with a timemachine backup, can this be done?

Easiest way is to clone the TM disk with Disk Utility and then remove the unneeded backup manually with the tmutil command-line program:

sudo tmutil delete "<path>"

The path is the directory for the machine, e.g. /Volumes/Backup/Backups.backupdb/MacBook
