Finder can't open the dmg. ditto(1) doesn't seem to be able to cope
with copying files either, so I switched back to cp -R which worked
like a charm for me...
Now that I think about it, I think thats on purpose. Finder mounts disk
images with perms disabled by default, which would break most things in
the chroot. IIRC the script also mounts volfs and devfs in the chroot
which can only be done by root/admin.
This was a note on the howto where it says to copy over the pkg files
from the CD and XCode Tools. I had to do it with cp -R since ditto only
used a lot of CPU cycles and finally ended up writing everything to the
same file or something. Not really useful.
I can't toy with it any further as I decided to give my main system a
reinstall since I gave booting from my iPod a shot after a (clean)
reboot this afternoon and surprice surprice, it just booted fine off the
iPod proving to me the firewire stuff is hardware wise completely OK.
(The night before it caused me headaches and hard reboots again because
it just 'hangs' and stalls the complete system, making the iPod
unmountable, etc.)
Then software update on the iPod showed all kinds of security updates
and stuff that my main disk didn't get, even not when explicitly asking
for updates, so I guess I managed to borken a Tiger install... I never
succeeded in breaking my Jaguar install :/
So I'm waiting for the lengthy install phase to complete and ohw crap,
now I remember what I forgot... I didn't backup my system dirs, so I
have a fresh Gentoo setup to go through. Maybe I just only want the
chroots to be sure I won't screw anything again.
I'd like to have your Tiger script Kito ;)
