Can you open the .dmg files booted from an external disc?
I have not tried this yet, as it will require taking apart the
laptop---no time for that now, not on this kind of issue anyway--
and installing the HD to an external. And I can't think of what
effect that will have, given the nature of the problem at hand.
You seem to miss my drift. If you boot the machine from an external
drive and open the .dmg files on the internal drive then the system
on the internal drive is munged up.
Repair disk with Disk Utility first the run DiskWarrior and your
problem will go away>
To be clear on this problem a lot of times if you go to Diskwarrior
as a first fix it may tell you that the HDD is all munged up and you
can't replace or repair the directory
so if you go back and run Disk utility it will get the disk suitable
for DiskWarrior's magic plus save some scary dialogs . Most of the
time It works in this town. If you don't
have DiskWarrior shame. But Disk Utility may do the trick anyway.
