I just don't understand how this can be, Marco_Polo.
Neither do I. That's why I'm asking. Running Mac OS X 10.4.9 and SD 2.1.4.

As far as the image goes, if your source volume is 250GB, the most the sparse image can grow to is 250GB, since that's set as it's maximum size...
Runaway growth of sparse image files is a fact. To the best of my ability, I have verified that there is no fix. Unless you have a fix, I'd prefer not to discuss it further.

What I want to know at the moment is how to get SuperDuper to wait until my disk image has mounted before it attempts its scheduled backup.

I just tried the "run shell script before copy starts" option using a shell script with a sleep delay in it and again, SD ignored the delay.

Same bloody error.

If it'd just hold off for another 30 seconds or so, the disk image would finish mounting and it could perform the backup.
