I've been using Silverkeeper for a long time for all my backups. It's the only software that is really straight forward and lets me exclude files BOTH on the Source and Destination drive. And it's always been really reliable.

Unfortunately, since I upgraded to Mac OS 10.6 and Silverkeeper 2.0.2, whenever I try to back up my System drive to another drive it scans the System drive but will find zero files. Then it proceeds with the backup and is immediately done with zero files copied. It works fine on any other hard drive but NOT the System drive. I made sure all the permissions are right but no success.

My system drive is a RAID 0 of 2 drives and so is my backup drive. It does find files on the backup RAID (if I try that as my source), so I don't think the fact that my System drive is a RAID is the problem.

I've tried anything I could including trying many other backup softwares, which now corrupted my system and I have to reinstall everything - HORROR!
Any help would be much appreciated.
