SD stalling for me as well
I updated tonight to 2.5 because I plan on upgrading to Leopard, after I made a clone of my current drive. But I can't. Twice I've tried copying over the drive to an external firewire drive. The first time it copied over about a 1/5th of the drive and then stalled, no more files were being copied. I still had access to my computer, nothing was frozen. I had no apps running, I wanted the copying to be as smooth as possible.
I wiped the destination drive and tried again, this time about a 1/3 of the way in SD hangs, no more files are copying over. I'm able to quit the program fine, and I have access to my computer.
You wrote earlier that someone else had the same problem, and they sent you their log, which showed that their source drive has some damage. I haven't optimized my drive in over a year, so I'm going to do so and see if this is the cure. I'll post again afterwards to see if it changed anything.
Macbook Pro Core Duo
2.0 ghz / 2 gigs ram
100gb HD
OS X 10.4.1
no antivirus software running
am going to run techtool deluxe before my next attempt at copying.
