I found that a masonary chisel (also called a "cold" chisel) and hammer works well to remove mosaic tile from concrete. Hold the chisel at the base of the tile and smack it with a hammer. Wear eye protection.

I currently have a 3/4" subfloor that is pretty solid. The local mega home improvement dude tells me I could use 1/4" Hardibacker on top of that and my serface would be sufficient. Is this advise correct? Please let me know what experice you have if you reply to this.
