I've had this problem this week too. The CCC suggestion

target drive and checking to see if the drive has the
latest firmware update. Doesn't leave much to chance,
does it?)
Also, run no other programs during the clone. I think
running stuff changes files deep in Unix and when CCC
comes to clone them, it hits unexpected changes.
I cloned 10.3.3 to a drive of its own from a drive it
shared with 9.2. I kept getting disk curruption (file
overruns or something), easily fixed by Disk Utility on
an install disk, but I couldn't boot in either system
until it was fixed. I hope I'll have better luck now.
After cloning the system to its own disk, I ran
permissions on the new system and reinstalled all the
XPostFacto stuff from the XPost menu. Finally, I had a

Thanx for the hints. I also found "overlaps" in the
file-system using Disk Aid and had them fixed and the
permissions repaired. Also only one of the two OSX
partitions was "journaled" so I switchet it on. BTW, what
does journaling do?
Another strange thing: sometimes Disk Aid could not
dismount the partition (in use?), when I tried again it
suddenly would ...

What do you mean by the XPost menu? I thought that
XPostFacto only works from the OS 9 disk/partition? Could
you please enlighten me/us a bit more? Thanx again.
