I put another hard drive into a G4 tower, partitioned it using Disk Utility, and tried using the Restore feature to clone the entire existing drive in the G4 (source drive: Mac HD), to the destination Backup drive.
I repaired permissions on the source HD first.
The restore process just runs a few minutes then stops, citing some copy error. I've now made 3 attempts.
note I just dragged the source & destination disks from the left-hand pane in the DU window, onto the proper spots in the Restore pane, since I'm not sure about making disk images, etc.
