10.3: Create a system install DVD
I've tried to follow the commands for expanding the disk image very carefully, and the "-partitiononly" command always fails with the "resize request is above maximum size allowed" error. The image file size "-imageonly" command is executed without error. Any attempt to increase the partition size to any but a tiny bit larger than its existing size fails with that error. I'm using 10.3.3. How can I resize the image? Thanks.

I can't seem to grow the partition either. I found some other instructions that suggested using Disk Copy from a Jaguar installation, but that didn't work either. I also tried the sparseimage suggestion, but when I try to restore the CD to the sparseimage I gen an error: "Lost connection to helper tool."

I worked for like 4 hours on this and got frustrated to no end. But I've definitely come to the conclusion that the initial steps posted about don't work in 10.3.5. The max stretch size is set at like 743MB so you can't -stretch or resize the file beyond that. I've tried creating the image in many different ways using hdiutil but data always seems to get lost along the way and the image doesn't boot.

I tried the other method and it didn't work as well. I have just come to the conclusion that you need that exact image of the OS X Install Disc, but for some reason in 10.3.5 you can't resize it :-\. |
