The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

PowerMac to Intel CarbonCopyCloner using Tiger

Asked by ramble in Mac OS 10.4 (Tiger), DriveCopy, Mac OS 10.5 (Leopard)

Tags: Mac OS Volume Tiger Dual Booting, CarbonCopyCloner

I'm cloning a Powermac to an Intel Mac.  From what I've read, it should be possible.  I've held "t" down and put the Intel into Slave mode.  The primary drive on the Intel will remain intact...for now.  I'm using the secondary drive to carboncopy the OS of the PowerMac to the secondary drive of the Intel.  Then, I was going to try to do a dual boot to see if it would boot up by holding the Alt/option key down at startup (from a previous post tip I posted recently).

However, I'm getting a message on the CarbonCopyCloner software...

It says:

The target Volume will not boot PowerPC Macs. PowerPC Macs can only boot from a hard drive that is partitioned with the Apple Partition Map Format.

...well, of course, I don't want the target volume to boot a powerpc mac because it will be an intel Mac.  But, I do want it to be able to boot this on the intel Mac.   I just want to get some input before I start this process.

Thanks for any input.

Btw, the intel is an Xserver.
