Hi...
I'm trying to determine if a weird behaviour is just my machine or is
more widespread. Out of interest, if you've got a few minutes to
spare, and you have the following
* A Mac running 10.3.x or 10.4.x
* An external firewire drive with a > 1Gb file on it and enough spare
disk space to duplicate that file once.
The procedure:
Using the Finder to duplicate a (> 1Gb) file that's already on your
external firewire drive.
Open Terminal
type
cmp
hit the space bar and drag the original file and then the duplicate
file onto the terminal window (terminal should insert their paths
into the window).
Hit return
Wait for cmp to complete.
If you get a message that says the files are different, please let me know.
Thanks,
Shay
