Re: Volume Wrapper

[Adam Thayer]

Sorry, the Volume Wrapper is actually an HFS+ specific thing. The 
Volume Wrapper is a chunk of HFS information to allow the ROMs in older 
machines to properly boot an HFS+ drive, since this wrapper is part of 
the HFS+ specification, all HFS+ partitions have it. The significance 
could be large or small... but personally, I would run Disk Utility off 
the OS X install CD (if your iBook has it) to do the repairs of 
something like that rather than Disk Warrior.

If Disk Utility can't fix it... then it would appear to be a bad drive, 
run the Hardware Diagnostic CD that came with the iBook and if errors 
come up there, it is time to call Apple to get the drive replaced.

It's a part of the formatting process I believe. Bad formatting, bad 
drive, bad logic.

Hi,

I have just replaced my Wallstreet with a new iBook. When I run 
DiskWarrior 3, some scans indicate that there is a serious problem 
with the volume wrapper that it then fixes. Can anybody remind me of 
what a volume wrapper is, the significance of errors with it, and why 
this problem may reoccur?

Thanks for any help.

John
