 Posted: Wed May 18, 2005 6:41 pm Post subject: Bootable firewire drive |
 |
|
I just upgraded the drive in my Micronet firewire enclosure. I used CCC to create a bootable clone. However, it doesn't show up as a startup disk choice. I am using 10.4.1. I tried to repair permissions and the disk. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Brendan |

Use SuperDuper for cloning. It is 10.4.1 compatible. CCC hasn't been updated in like 3 years.
The free version of SD works perfectly. If you want scheduling and Smart updates, then you'll have to pony up $20 to enable these features. It's a great bargain for $20. |

No dice. Here is the error from superduper:
|09:48:16 PM|Info| PHASE: Conclude Target Setup
|09:48:16 PM|Info| ...ACTION: Bless System on UNTITLED
|09:48:16 PM|Info| ......COMMAND => Blessing OS X System Folder

This worked before I replaced the drive. I even tried to install Tiger from DVD, it said the drive is not startable. It did work, even after upgrading to tiger. |

| Fixed. Apparently, firewire stopped working on the mini. So the drive was using the USB connection. A few reboots and back in business. |

How do you take apart the miniMate? I have the 160GB but don't have the nerve to rip into it.
