It upgraded itself. Most program updates are supposed to be backward
compatible and eventually I will go to Leopard. Thats two reasons.

In a different thread, I discovered the new version handles inherited
ACLs and that Tiger had them (to a lesser extent than Leopard).

You know, I noticed that SuperDuper would seem to hang occasionally a
while back when I was using it. While there may be technical reasons for
it, I think that should definitely be considered a bug, because it can
fool someone into cancelling the operation prematurely.

Nothing very large, the largest would be about 4GB@ for several picture
folders. I went back to 2.4 and that was okay for the same files. Once
I had unchecked "repair Mac HD permissions" I didn'y have a beach ball
problem. Wait and see now for the time being and relearn patience.

When did 2.4 come out? I just fired up SuperDuper! and it was 2.1.4,
and was told 2.5 was available for update. I installed 2.1.4 in
February, 2007. I was never notified of 2.2, 2.3 or 2.4 but I am being
notified of 2.5.

No problems here on Tiger. Just did 2 full backups to extrnal USB and a
FW800 drive, both worked ok. Then confirmed will boot from both.
