I'm hoping that the combined knowledge of the list can end my firewire torture.
I should be able to connect my PISMO 400 mhz 768 MB OS 10.3 in
firewire target disk (FTD) mode to a Quicksilver 733 mhz 640 MB OS
10.3 but every time I try to access the FTD for backup purposes it
freezes. I installed a second internal 120GB hard drive and created a
partition to backup to. What I have experienced is stalls and
freezes with Disk Utility application, Carbon Copy Cloner, and Data
Backup.
To try and recover from these firewire freezes I run Applejack and
then Tech Tool Pro 4 to repair the disks.
Is there a preference I should trash to stop this pattern?
Is this some kind of firewire firmware compatability problem between
the Quicksilver & Pismo?
I'm trying to backup, which is a good thing, but buying an external
drive means laying out more money.
Ideas, suggestions, and /or free beer appreciated.
