Clone booted, but cpu at 100%, required prebinding.
I downloaded SuperDuper! for Leopard with much relief and proceeded to clone my Leopard startup volume. But when I booted into the clone I ran into the same problem that I had when I tried Carbon Copy Cloner, the volume booted, but the CPU usage was up to 100% and I was unable to use the clone. Some programs unexpectedly quit, others took forever to load. Path Finder loaded but took over 5 minutes. I could not run Activity Monitor because it "Unexpectedly quit" before finishing. The clone would sort of work in safe mode and I was able to use my alternate account that has nothing installed. However I did notice a comment by Bruno_08 which mentioned prebinding. I did so using MainMenu, and voila, it worked. However just to check, I did a smart update and ran into the same problem. I had to boot into safe mode so I could run MainMenu and run prebinding. Obviously this is not a common problem, but does anyone have a clue as to what is happening?
I am running Leopard 10.5.1 on a PPC Mac Mini 1.25 GHz 1 GB and I installed Leopard on an empty partition, setting up my user account and installing all my applications from scratch. fmlogue |
Hi fmlogue
You know what ? I'm happy I'm not alone with this problem ! I discovered that Rebuild prebindings was a reliable solution, but i do not know why ? Do u have Little Snitch running during the cloning ? Had you check the Box " Repair permission on Mac HD" ? Problem is the same on PPC and Mac Intel I tried to quit all when i made the clone, but not Little Snitch ... And many other Mac OS X.5 process running in the same time. I have also 'PlugSuit" enable for Safari, a plug-in to have SafariPlus and TwiceTab active. This work with "SIMBL" in Application Support" I ask Dave by mail for a possible idea off what's happen , but he never see that yet. At least ! we are 2 now. Ps : I did a smart update and ran into the same problem also ... (solved by Rebuilding prebindings on he clone booted) (Clones mades on LaCie and Iomega 2.5 HD FireWire 400) |
Re: Clone booted, but cpu at 100%, required prebinding.
Well, Bruno_08, I also had Little Snitch running And I have PlugSuit installed to allow me to use TextExtras. Do you think one of these is responsible? I guess I will have to test when I have time. Maybe I should run SuperSuper! in safe mode.

I don't know.
This perhaps a runway It is amazing anyway, many of us are using Little Snitch. (V 2.0.2) We have to test it to be sure, one by one ... I noticed that Little Snitch does not kept the User defined rules on the clone ... I don't know if Dave know something about Little Snitch and Plug Suit issue with SD 2.5 ? Keep us posted. |
Sorry, no -- I don't.

Yes I have ClamXav installed, but I have not run it in a while.

Have a look here |
Well, the update 10.5.2, did not solved anything here.
I just make a Smart Update, and I always have to do a rebuild prebinding as i had discovered the first time. fmlogue, do you have a HP scanner ? As far as I am concerned, there is a Background process that I suspect : "HP Scanjet Manager" Bruno still under investigation with not much help ... |

Thanks Dave But, How do i do that ?? "Please create a new copy script, include "Backup - all files", and then add a command to ignore" |
See the User's Guide - "Excluding files and folders from a backup".
|
Well, Dave, I just try with this new script, it does not work.
There was however change: The clone boot smoothly, all the applications "unexpectly quit as usual", I have a "heavy CPU load as usual". So, as usual, I run the only application that responds, "Leopard Cache Cleaner" and attempted to Rebuild Prebinding: The difference is that the prebinding is not, or in any case is hyper fast (1 sec) in contrast 3 minutes usual. I reboot, same worries. It is something else ... :\ |
Hm. After the backup runs, please check the destination volume to see if /Volumes/the-backup/private/var/db/dyld is empty.
|
I just re-Smart Update with the script modified thus:
Yes dyld's contents of the back-up is empty. :\ I do not want to drop the case, it must be well hidden and more than with the dynamic linker ... |
OK. No other "easy" ideas at present, but we'll continue to look into it. Doesn't happen here, though.
