I need to make an image of an emac and then install it on others. the emacs has a cd drive so I can't load it onto a dvd. I tried migrating it but didn't work.

Mac mini, Mac OS X (10.6.7)

I think what you're asking is how do you make a disk image of the eMac's hard drive for installation on other machines.


One way is to start the machine in Target Disk Mode by holding down "T" on startup. That will allow you to connect it to another machine using a FireWire cable, and from the other machine you can use Disk Utility or something to create a disk image. You can also use a piece of software like Carbon Copy Cloner to clone the hard drive to an external drive on the USB bus or something.
