I have been experiencing recurrent app crashes on my Macbook 3,1 running 10.6.1 for the past few weeks. Turns out the error was Kernal protection failures with apps like iTunes (latest version), Grab, Carbon Copy Cloner and Super Duper. One recent report of a failure is at the bottom of this post.

Thinking my 10.6.1 install had become corrupted (I had done an upgrade to SL), I decided to partition my 320 gig drive and do a erase and install on the new partition. My current install takes up 130gigs. I have tried using Disk Utility to make a new partition of 130, then 120 then 110 then 100 gigs but it fails each time at resizing the current partition.

I'm now wondering if the faults I am seeing are related and if anyone out there has a solution for these problems.
Thanks!

Could it be the hard drive???

I had replaced my stock drive on the macbook with a WD3200BEVT (Western Digital 320gig). I did find that I could not install SL when it was attached as an internal SATA. now wondering if the drive itself could be causing these issues and be somehow incompatible with SL...
 
i got the same issue when i tried to install Seagate 500GB 7200rpm into my late 2008 macbook

1.) clean SL installed / system crashed / got beach ball
2.) clean Leopard installed / same issued

Now, i replaced the 500GB with a new seagate 320GB 7200rpm / system ok with SL so far.
 
It's not the drive : (

I used Carbon Copy Cloner to clone to a 160gig WD SATA 1 drive and just had the same crash - quite reproducible. Happens when trying to add a JPG as album cover to a specific audiobook. Then opened textedit to copy the error message and that crashed after saving.

Here's the crash log/report from the 160gig drive and below that the message from the 320gig one:

The drive could still be causing problems, if the drive hardware itself is fine, but the filesystem data is corrupted. Boot from the Mac OS X DVD, and run Disk Utility from there. Verify the main HD.

Thanks for taking the time to comment - greatly appreciate it!
Tried booting with the WD320gig drive but, as when I tried installing SL, it did not see the hard drive.
Exchanged out for the WD160gig cloned drive. This time booted from SL DVD and disk utility saw the hard drive. Checked permissions - two SUID ones that could not be repaired. Checked disk which passed. This is the drive that caused the crashes doing the exact same tasks as the WD320gig one.
I have an appt with a Genius on Tuesday morning. I welcome any other comments/suggestions before then.

eoren1!! make sure using the disk utility to fix permission to see if it works for you.

to me, i tried the following steps:

1.) put back your original hard drive back to your macbook that comes with your macbook.
2.) Do a clone using superdupper or carbon copy to another drive, if it's still in Leopard. just in case you want to reverse back to the original.
3.) upgrade this orginal hard drive to SL to see if it's still the problem.
4.) if it's still the problem, restore back to original as it was from the drive you just cloned to from step 2.
5.) if it's not then that's the new drive problem.

Please let us know if it's working for you.

Goodluck

Thanks for the suggestions.
Unfortunately, the original 120gig drive is not large enough to clone to as my current SL install takes up 150gigs.
By taking the hardware of the WD320 out of the equation by using a perfectly cloned copy to the 160gig drive, I think I ruled out any mechanical aspects of the larger drive as the issue.
I may end up doing a clean install at some point but, as I now have a sequence of events that I know will trigger a crash on both drives, I'm hesitant to go the clean install route right now.
Thanks again,
E
 
eoren1, the first crash report you posted is an Apple bug. If you google part of that crash you'll see tons of other people having the same problem.

See http://ticket.macromates.com/show?ticket_id=DFF9A041

Hopefully this will be fixed for 10.6.2.

(The reason I'm posting is I'm having reports of the same thing with my current project.)
