If you did a format of the target (or cloned) disk before trying to duplicate the original startup disk, then I would guess the problem lies with the source or startup disk. Could be a broken directory structure or other kind of problems. I might have missed it, but did you try running Disk Utility from the Mac OS X system install CD on your source/startup disk? -Laurent. -- ======================================================================== Laurent Daudelin Developer, Multifamily, ESO, Fannie Mae mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Washington, DC, USA ************************ Usual disclaimers apply *********************** -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
