mount_hfs: stat /private/tmp/SVUmount: No such file or directory
I'm trying to backup a drive and get this error when I try. I've checked the disks with Disk Utility and all is fine.

both /tmp and /private/tmp exist
Permissions on /tmp are: drwxrwxrwx 39 root wheel 1326 4 Oct 15:43 tmp Permissions on /private/tmp are: G5:~ myuser$ ls -l /private/tmp/ total 0 drwx------ 3 myuser wheel 102 4 Oct 15:38 501 |

Interesting. Well, I don't know why mount would refuse/fail to mount the image, but using the sparse image should resolve the problem...

"using the sparse image should resolve the problem"
Not sure how to do that.. this is my first time evaluating SuperDuper! |

That's what the link in the previous message points to... take a look there and it should be clearer.

Are you writing to an image for a reason? I assumed so, but if it's the only option available, that's because the destination isn't HFS+. There's another FAQ entry that covers that situation, too.

Oops... guess I need new glasses. 8-) I'll take a look. The reason for the image is I'm trying to make a virgin copy of a system install with all software (web, database and others) to build another server in a hurry if necessary (and keep a copy on DVD). Thanks.

Ah, OK. The problem you might run into is that the imaging framework in OSX is buggy in 10.3.9 -> 10.4.2. Sparse Images will be creatable, but conversion to DMG tends to fail. That's another reason to use a sparse image.
But, sparse images don't get block copied on restore. So, they're not faster than a regular file-by-file copy direct to a volume.

Thanks... anything is faster than a half a day installing (and building) all the components I need. (If a drive dies) So a sparse image should be fine.

Ah yes, indeed. Much better than that!
