This tidbits article is interesting, but wrong !
The first tests I have made when I received my iMac Intel were all possible tests to boot the same OS for intel and PPC...
If I still can't use the same partition to boot PPC and Intel iMacs (because of the build difference between the 2 versions of Mac OS X), one thing that worked very well is to boot from 2 different partitions of the same disk !
A disk partitionned from an intel based mac CAN be used to boot from a PPC mac.
The possibility to boot the same OS for both platform will sure come in the future, we can already netboot a minimalist OS image...

As for imaging and booting these new Intel beasts, you are required to make separate netboot/netinstall images, according to the Apple peeps on the osx-server/imaging/enterprise lists.

OK, that's certainly true for now, as the Intel machines have different OS build numbers than regular old 10.4.4. But does anyone know whether this is going to be the case down the track? That is, when 10.4.5 comes out, will the same image (physically held on different partitions, different drives, whatever it takes...) boot both machines?
Thanks for any insight,
Paul
I really didn't have any trouble booting into 10.4 from a new external firewire hard drive. I used CCC 2.3 and then repaired permissions. It started right up. I was a bit surprised given the concerned buzz.

I formatted/partitioned (via GUID scheme on Intel iMac) an external hard drive; cloned system over from the iMac via Carbon Copy Cloner, did the usual Repair Permissions and so on. Booted up fine in Intel iMac. Did not boot up on G5; showed up in Startup Disc and on the desktop, but no boot. Cloned a system from the G5 onto another partition of this hard drive; cloned OK, but not bootable from either the G5 or iMac. Appears to me that we will need a separate firewire drive for each computer... at least so far. I would dearly like to boot both computers from one external hard drive, so if someone has been able to do it, please share the steps needed. thanks.
