Bootable backup over the network?
Hi,
(I've just had to do a full system restore from a bootable backup, and it worked perfectly! thanks for this great software!) I have seen in the user's guide that one can make a bootable backup only on a wired (USB/Firewire) drive, not on a network drive. This seems to be because backing up on a network drive results in a sparse image, which is not bootable. I would like to understand why this is so, in particular, why is it not possible to make a bootable backup to a network drive. Is this an inherent technical limitation of how remote copying works? or maybe I'm just plain wrong in my understanding of the user guide, and one can in fact have SD do a bootable backup over the air? Thanks, -- Éric |
