Time Machine backups are not bootable.
Niel,
Can I clarify what you mean here please. Obviously the Time machine disk is not bootable, but I was under the impression that if my main boot drive goes belly up, I could restore the entire drive from Time Machine and it would be bootable.
If this is right, the answer to the OP's question would be "it depends". If the goal is to have a means of recovering from a HD failure then Time Machine would do it. If the need is to have a bootable clone on hand then Time Machine doesn't do it.
Edit, Re reading the OP the word continually implies he wants a handy clone, so TM won't do it.
