I have too much on my plate to be messing with my computer today... but I did anyway.
Currently must leave house soon for two days but can't properly eject FW volume and"system" volume from a disk image from an old system. The dmg volume was a back-up from my old ibook that is dead. I opened it in my new ibook to see if I could copy apps and other data. Apparently it's hung up on permissions or something. It's not the volume I'm booted from so why can't I eject it? Ownership says it's my username but all access is greyed out. I attempted to change ownership to "system" and some other things for experiment but wouldn't let me (got error message). So everything is still the same. Doesn't matter if I have it locked or unlock, and "ignore ownership" ticked or not. Will not eject and therefore can't eject the external FW drive either because it says it's in use. I don't have time for this crap today! I do not want to imprperly shut down my firewire BU drive... too many important things on it. What do I need to do?
