Would appreciate any help.

Trying to make a backup copy of my boot drive onto an external lacie firewire drive. Ran SD and got an error halting backup message. Should I stop running all applications when I try to clone the drive? (I was playing some music, surfing the web, and copying over some other files onto a different partition). Here's the relevant logfile info.
