Cloning MacOs Leopard and Bootcamp on a new Hard Disk
I've had to replace the hard drive of my MacBook (with Leopard OS and Windows Vista with Bootcamp partition) with a more capacious. Some nights after I found a solution that allowed me to clone my Bootcamp to repartition the disk and the new hard disk with more GB. First of all use quite frequently back up Mac "Time Machine", I think it is very useful, and I decided to use this tool to clone my system to a new record, in preference to other systems such as Carbon Copy Cloner. Once you update the backup with Time Machine, I proceeded to clone the Boot Camp partition. I used WinClone, effective freeware software that allows you to clone the BootCamp partition. The image I have saved on a USB drive. Once saved the two partitions, I swapped the old drive with new one. Once traded, I took my boot MacOs Leopard DVD, and I run the system from DVD. I used the Disk Utility on the boot DVD which is to create the new partition and Mac OS Bootcamp. When choosing how to partition the disk, press the Options button, and make sure it is checked the "GUID Partition Table", otherwise when the time comes to restore the bootcamp partition, you will encounter some errors that will not let you restore. Format the partition and then only dedicated to the MacOS, at this time. When it is initialized, then always in the dropdown menu, try the system restore with Time Machine (boot before you connect the backup disk for "Time Machine" of course). When the process is finished, remove the DVD Boot, the Time Machine backup disk and restart the system from the new album (bootcamp is not yet active). after arguing a bit, in the end this was the best method. I recommend you always backup your system. This
