enb14 Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 Use the included partition software that mac has, then click on your partition and set to save it as .IMG file Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/15270-question-how-to-image-a-mac-partition/#findComment-97902 Share on other sites More sharing options...
imgeorge Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 Thanks! But can I save it on separate DVDs directly from Disk Utility,cause I don't have another UFS+ partition?

Ritchie Posted April 17, 2006 Share Posted April 17, 2006 You can boot with ghost, and make a backup image, but you partition will be the same, even if you recover it on a bigger partition..

imgeorge Posted April 17, 2006 Author Share Posted April 17, 2006 So the Ghost under DOS supports UFS+ partitions? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/15270-question-how-to-image-a-mac-partition/#findComment-97950 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suser Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 To make the size of the Ghost image smaller you need to wipe the unused partition space and fill it with Zeroes in the disk utility.

kseelbo Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 Try a program called carbon copy cloner. I'm not sure if it will do what you want, but it will copy mac hard drives.

Suser Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 I already tried that tool but it's worthless compared to Ghost. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/15270-question-how-to-image-a-mac-partition/#findComment-98383 Share on other sites More sharing options...
