SuperDuper

Thanks. For posterity sake, I found a posting at SuperDuper site that showed this is a known issue and shows how to deal with it. ...

I am assuming your Int-HD is FUBAR'd. Hrrrmmmm . . . I am not aware of how you can open a .dmg of that size on a smaller HD. Since you need a new HD for your PB G4, you might as well get one. Unless you want to upgrade your computer . . . even then you are going to get a fresh new Int-HD that is really big. Whichever you chose you can try a couple of things. I...

Hi, I purchased, and installed os X 10.5.4 for someone, on their ibook G4. They specifically wanted the HDD wiped, and started from scratch. (I do however have a backup of the old system using superduper). Originally the laptop ran Panther, and it came with MS Office 2004, and Photoshop Elements. The only CDs they had were 2 grey system restore CDs, so I ran those, and...

Was this every resolved. I notice in the Open Files and Ports a reference to SuperDuper. Could this be related?

This tends to happen when DiskWarrior finds a bad sector (it can not fix) in the startup sequence.

Which MacMini? According to my "Mac Tracker" the Late 2005 had a PowerPC . . . and your disk may not recognize that. Granted, "black" may be universal.

I was able to load a proper 10.4 for Intel . . . then...

I personally use SuperDuper but I'm sure the others are just as good and personal opinions vary. ...
