asr has the --wrapper option, which makes drives bootable (or at least. omitting it seems to make them unbootable :)


--wrapper forces an HFS wrapper to be created on the tar get volume if the --erase option is used. Nor mally the creation of a wrapper depends on certain filesystem variables. --wrapper is ignored if --erase is not used.

Yes, that's right. It can't get the boot blocks. For something
like that you'd probably need to use something like
Carbon Copy Cloner like Scott suggested. I've also
had good luck with a program called Super Duper

Under tiger it should be possible since they added the option

In my original email I was wondering if I could use rsync with proper
parameters to do a full disk copy. Possible?

And you can get the three-user version of retrospect with far advanced

Well Retrospect is for people that don't know how to use rsync anyway...
