Cloning Across Platforms

When cloning from one machine to another, the simplest case is where the two machines are running the same version of the same operating system.
A slightly more complex case occurs where the two operating systems are binary compatible, and the source system is running an earlier version of the same operating system that is being used on the target system. While Rapid Clone can often be used successfully in such cases, you should generally aim to clone between machines that are running identical versions of an operating system. This minimizes the risk of problems arising because of differences between the versions.
Warning: It is not supported to clone from a later version of an operating system to an earlier one.
