Topic: Installed Mountain Lion on external drive - is my activation safe?

Hi,

As per thread title, I've just installed Mountain Lion on my iMac as a brand new, clean install to an external drive, with the Lion install still intact (I hope) on the internal drive.

I need to run the Pianoteq installer again, of course, but I'm a little concerned that this might confuse the licence manager. Will it still recognise my hardware as being the same, what with the boot partition being in a different place?

Yes, it will use the same activation slot.
