Well,i bought my 120 GB hdd yesterday (he he
) and now i have to copy circa 80 CD's to HD..
It is freshly formatted,permissions checked..I think its jaguar problem..
And scariest thing.. If i let my mac be freezed for few minutes,entire system is ****ed!
I cant boot jaguar anymore then and i have to install jaguar again (archive and install helps).
I never had such problems with 10.1 damn it,I often must bring cd's to my pc friends so they can copy them to new cd-r's.. It's annoying!

Well, I just drag files to hd and transfer stops..bechball is spinning..all apps seem affected and then it freezes. Howewer, most files copy with no probs,but some of theme have probs..
It is same with Toast or when playing some videos with quicktime from cd.. I had this problem with old hdd,i have it now..and few times i made clean installation of OS X.
Yesterday,I copied mp3's to hdd with iTunes and mac freezed and mac couldn't load my user.. (after that Mac OS X loading window with progress bar it stopped).
I installed security update and 6D42 update,I'll see if anything changed.

You didn't answer any of my previous questions. Try starting up off the 10.2 cd and repairing permissions and checking the disc. Have you ran fsck -y?
try this
try making a disc image with dicc copy and then copy the files from the virtual disc. it will be an extra step and take longer, but it is worth a try.

Try copying data a little bit at a time..not all at once...Apple has stated that there is an issue with copying large amounts of data to and from the HD.
Try doing it in 100 mb chunks...you should be fine.

I transferred 37gigs over ethernet from my old computer to my new one without a hitch and have had no problems with any of it. So I don't know where you got the large data corruption thing. The only time I've ever heard about data corruption moving large files was with the early B/W G3's. They had some ATA bus problems that as far as I know were fixed with later OS 9 releases and OSX.
Re: 6D47!!! That is Why...
I am running 6C115,not 6D47 and i reinstalled it few times (new hd,putting os x on old etc.) and in all cases problem was same. Repairing permissions,fsck -y etc. didn't fix the problem. Today i was copying 30 cd's to hd and I had to restart mac 5 times,it's annoying but I'll just wait for 10.2.1 final to come out hoping it'll fix my problem.
Re: Re: 6D47!!! That is Why...
What do you mean by 10.1.5 final coming out? It's out and has been since July.
