Hard drive image creation

Carbon Copy Cloning

It could recreate the whole hard drive over a new disk or just store the image in a specific location, that later will allow duplicat the system or even distribute over Netboot/Netinstall server.

Carbon copy could be downloaded from: [1]

There are multiple options that works:

Live system

From live system the destination could be:

  • Another hard drive with enough space to store the current hard drive.
  • Another current systems with, at least, the same size in hard drive, but note that:
    • The backup type must be incremental
    • The secondary system must be in target mode

Non-running system

A system that previously was started up in target mode can also be hooked to a running system and selected as source. The destination could be selected in the same way as described above.

Target mode

  1. Connect screen, keyboard, and power.
  2. Turn on and immediately press and hold "t" until screen shows the firewire symbol
  3. Connect to the master using firewire cable
