New User , Creating A Sandbox
Hi everyone
![]() I've just purchased the full version of SuperDuper having used the free one previously and I'm looking at making use of the sandbox feature. I would like to use this for testing out new applications such as Logic Pro 9 and also for testing out Snow Leopard, so that if I have any problems I can simply revert back to my original startup disc and try again. My setup just now consists of the following drives: 1. iMac Internal 250GB Drive (Startup) 2. 500GB WD External Firewire Drive (Partition 1 - 100GB Bootable Clone, Mac OSX Extended (Journaled), Partition 2 - 400GB Time Machine, Mac OSX Extended (Journaled) *This Drive Is GUID* 3. 500GB WD External Firewire Drive (Audio, Video, Data, Projects, etc) What I would like to do is create a sandbox partition on my iMac internal drive, say about 50GB in size. I feel this would leave me enough room for experimentation as my internal drive just now is only using around 23GB. I'm not entirely sure on how I would go about setting this up so i'm looking for some advice. I was thinking along the following lines: 1. Use smart update in SuperDuper to update clone drive 2. Boot from clone drive 3. Partition internal drive using disk utility (Partition 1 - iMac HD, Partition 2 - Sandbox) 4. Copy clone drive to new iMac HD partition on internal 5. Setup sandbox drive Would this be the safest and most practical way of doing this or would I be better trying something different? Thanks Bryan |
