I was able to back up a newly installed 10.4.6 with all my applications etc in about 5 minutes. Reboot and boot to 0s2 or whatver your secondary osx86 partition is and you have a nice cloned install to boot from.

Thnx to sk3rdii who told me about this app and helped me back up my first install. ;)

Very nice! This should be incredibly useful for backup efforts.. I know how many us screw up our OSx86 installations for one reason or another..
