CCC works until tonite!
Authored by: BruceM. on Apr 27, '02 04:56:16AM

I had my 1st CCC failure cloning an OS9 volume last night where the process halted at 70% completion with an error message. The file that locked up the clone was an invisible Norton File Saver file.
After deleteing it (and TTP Protection files which I always skip), I reformatted the partition with Disk Utility and successfully made a bootable clone with the second attempt. I wonder if some of these non-native system OSX/OS9 invisible files might contribute to failed/errored clones others have experienced. Has anyone seen a similiar pattern of hangs with non-apple files causing the failures? Also, my 10.1.3 system is only 1.8GB size, do hangs frequency increase with larger systems getting cloned?
