10.3: Create cross-platform disk images
Authored by: @@ on Oct 25, '03 06:22:11AM

Hi,

I can't perform hdiutil makehybrid command because:


hdiutil: verb "makehybrid" is not recognized.

Any explanation?

Thanks

You're on panther right? My man page for hdiutil shows the following, and makehybrid is listed as a verb:

DESCRIPTION
hdiutil uses the DiskImages framework to manipulate disk images. Common
verbs include attach, detach, verify, create, convert, and burn.

The rest of the verbs are: help, info, load, checksum, chpass, eject
(historical synonym for detach), flatten, unflatten, imageinfo, mount
(historical synonym for attach), mountvol, unmount, plugins,
internet-enable, resize, segment, compact, makehybrid, and pmap.

Its been a while but while in the terminal and you type hdiutil do you see the verb makehybrid? It should work if you do.

I do get the makehybrid verb listed for hdiutil, and at first it seems I can work with it, but as soon as I try to add a source it gives me "operation not permitted" (Panther 1039). Any ideas? TNX!
