Problems mounting/dismounting drives
I'm running SuperDuper! 2.6.2 and since upgrading my Mac Pro to
Snow Leopard (10.6.2) I have been having problems with unreliable mounting of partitions used for SuperDuper! backups on Firewire attached drives. Other Firewire drives (not used by SuperDuper!) mount and dismount without any problem. But partitions used for SuperDuper! backups sometimes do not appear in the Finder when mounted. They do appear mounted to the command line df command. If I bring up Disk Utility, then they suddenly do appear in the Finder. Two other anomalies are seen associated with SuperDuper! backup partitions. When unmounting the partition, these kind of entries are always seen in the system log: 21/01/2010 14:33:13 com.apple.notifyd[13] EV_DELETE failed for file watcher 43 21/01/2010 14:33:13 com.apple.notifyd[13] EV_DELETE failed for file watcher 39 21/01/2010 14:33:13 com.apple.notifyd[13] EV_DELETE failed for file watcher 38 21/01/2010 14:33:13 com.apple.notifyd[13] EV_DELETE failed for file watcher 37 21/01/2010 14:33:13 com.apple.notifyd[13] EV_DELETE failed for file watcher 36 21/01/2010 14:33:13 com.apple.notifyd[13] EV_DELETE failed for file watcher 34 21/01/2010 14:33:13 com.apple.notifyd[13] EV_DELETE failed for file watcher 42 21/01/2010 14:33:13 com.apple.notifyd[13] EV_DELETE failed for file watcher 35 21/01/2010 14:33:13 com.apple.notifyd[13] EV_DELETE failed for file watcher 41 21/01/2010 14:33:14 mdworker[1824] CFPropertyListCreateFromXMLData(): Old-style plist parser: missing semicolon in dictionary. And sometimes, when dismounting those partitions, the Finder crashes with these entries in the log: 21/01/2010 14:33:17 com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[165] (com.apple.Finder[175]) Job appears to have crashed: Segmentation fault 21/01/2010 14:33:18 ReportCrash[1827] Saved crash report for Finder[175] version 10.6.2 (10.6.2) to /Users/mike/Library/Logs/DiagnosticReports/Finder_2010-01-21-143318_Shackleton.crash Please tell me if you are aware of this problem and working on a solution. I would be happy to help with further diagnostics if needed. |
