Recovering hard disk from crashes

Post by uliwitness »

Hi,

I tried to do some System 7.5.3r2 C programming on Basilisk II on MacOS X Monterey. When I write the inevitable bug and it crashes, it always corrupted my entire boot disk image. I've managed to work around that a little by putting the files I'm working on on a separate disk (that way I can just replace the boot disk image with a backup to recover from a crash).

Are there any tricks to prevent this corruption, or restore a corrupted disk image?
Cheers,

I keep Time Machine going, so I can just revert to a recent backup.
