    How Do I Mirror 10.1 HD onto Another Drive?

    does this work with different size partitions? you could always be an uber-geek and do a dump partition1 | restore partition2 from the command line.. That won't transfer your boot blocks, but I've had good luck with the recent openfirmware recognizing startup volumes copied using ghetto-style..

    10.1 New and Hidden Features

    or just workstations. if you've got a couple ide drives in there, you can mirror/stripe for performance and redundancy reasons. Unfortuntately, they're still ide drives and will take your cpu..

    Thanks Apple

    Calm down :) Something that everyone needs to understand that 10.x is totally new (to the mac platform)! There are more things new about 10 than there were in 7-9 combined. That being said, bringing an operating system of this magnitude up to feature parity with the incumbant os takes time...

    Burning a dmg file in Winblows XP!

    Redhat Package Manager for OSX

    why? I think rpms are a hell of a lot better than almost any other packaging format, for many reasons. why do you think they're no good? ever try downgrading a solaris package? and can you even remove macosx packages? no seriously, I think the openports idea is a good one, finally a ports...

    SGI 1600 LCD display + OSX?

    works very well, and has worked since the dp's. The card is not accelerated, though, and I hope it becomes so in the final release. I did have some problem with upgrading the rom on the card though (can't remember the version, but I tried to upgrade to the latest version as of a month ago, I...
