Hagar Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 It works from harddrive to harddrive, but not from machine to machine, as this requires "target disk mode" which hackies don't have.. The migration from one install to another works great, however, & I have used it quite a bit, even to migrate from one machine to another by moving the hardddrive over.

dary23 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 I used it from my Mac mini to my hackintosh laptop. It had one of the smaller IEEE 1394 ports. It worked just as smooth as from mac to mac. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/35346-migration-assistant/#findComment-251226 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rammjet Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 At worst, it is going to say it can't find anything to migrate from. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/35346-migration-assistant/#findComment-251364 Share on other sites More sharing options...
