Wondering if anyone can help with this. Was able to clone my XP Bootcamp partition with Winclone. Upon trying to restore, I am getting an error from Winclone. Log file below.

Thanks!

Can you try running just the line that is failing from Terminal.app and post the output in a CODE block. (# in the edit box here).

Code: 
sudo /usr/bin/hdiutil attach -verbose -nomount "/Users/Brian/Desktop/xpclone.winclone/Windows.sparsebundle"

I added sudo and -verbose to give more output and make sure privileges are set (you will have to give your account password for sudo).

EDIT: Could you possibly post the whole Winclone.log file somehow? Maybe as a ZIP attachment?

It seems like your image may be damaged, but something else may be getting in the way.

Can you try it without your time machine backup disk connected?

Turning off Time Machine and disconnecting the TM discs did not help - still getting the same error.

Click to expand...

Still sounding like you have a broken image :(

Try
Code: 
sudo /usr/bin/hdiutil imageinfo -verbose "/Users/Brian/Desktop/xpclone.winclone/Windows.sparsebundle"
just for fun.

Did you move the image around from disk to disk? was it archived anywhere before it came back to your desktop... Was it created with a version of Winclone other than 2.2?

EDIT: FWIW the output from a "good" image I have looks like

Code: 
DIDiskImageInstantiatorProbe: interface  0, score        0, CDARTDiskImage
DIDiskImageInstantiatorProbe: interface  1, score        0, CDiskCopy42DiskImage

DIDiskImageInstantiatorProbe: interface  7, score     -100, CSparseDiskImage
DIDiskImageInstantiatorProbe: interface  8, score     1000, CSparseBundleDiskImage
DIDiskImageInstantiatorProbe: interface  9, score    -1000, CCFPlugInDiskImage
DIDiskImageInstantiatorProbe: interface 10, score     -100, CWrappedDiskImage
DIDiskImageInstantiatorProbe: selecting CSparseBundleDiskImage

Probably the test for CRawDiskImage is what's causing it to bomb. (The first line not output is bolded). I wonder if you can somehow force it to use CSparseBundleDiskImage instead.

EDIT2: Found it in the man page examples.

Try adding
Code: 
-imagekey diskimage-class=CSparseBundleDiskImage
To the attach command and see if that works. After that you would have to perform the restore manually. I can lead you through it if you can get that to work.

You lost me at "-imagekey diskimage-class=CSparseBundleDiskImage" -- where do you want me to add that to? I'm pretty weak in the terminal commands.

I also attached another WinClone log that includes the creation of the clone. I am using Winclone Ver 2.2

FWIW - I cloned the partition as I am having to swap out my hard drive due to bad sectors in the Bootcamp Partition, which Winclone sees during the clone, but completes the clone anyways. This led me to believe that Winclone wasn't having a problem with the bad sectors. Hoping this is not causing the hickup.

Let me know if you still want me to try and add the "-imagekey diskimage-class=CSparseBundleDiskImage" code, and to what.

Thanks!

Sorry. I meant:

Code: 
sudo /usr/bin/hdiutil imageinfo -verbose -imagekey diskimage-class=CSparseBundleDiskImage "/Users/Brian/Desktop/xpclone.winclone/Windows.sparsebundle"

or

Code: 
sudo /usr/bin/hdiutil attach -nomount -verbose -imagekey diskimage-class=CSparseBundleDiskImage "/Users/Brian/Desktop/xpclone.winclone/Windows.sparsebundle"

That's supposed to force it to know what kind of image it is, but I can't test it since my images don't bomb like yours does.

Yes. It did.

It actually attached the image so that the next step Winclone tries should work.

The next step is supposed to be :

Code: 
sudo "/Library/NTFSProgs/ntfsclone" --rescue -f -f -O "/dev/disk0s3" "/dev/disk2"

(ignore the redirection at the end of the command from the log file since you will be running it from Terminal).

NOTE: You will be overwriting /dev/disk0s3 and should only proceed if you have a verified backup of all your important data.

Ah - so close - but it says the resource is busy.

Sorry. Forgot to tell you to unmount it first. Winclone does it for you, but not if you do it manually.

Code: 
sudo /usr/bin/hdiutil attach -nomount -verbose -imagekey diskimage-class=CSparseBundleDiskImage "/Users/Brian/Desktop/xpclone.winclone/Windows.sparsebundle"
sudo /usr/sbin/diskutil unmount "/dev/disk0s3"
sudo "/Library/NTFSProgs/ntfsclone" --rescue -f -f -O "/dev/disk0s3" "/dev/disk2"

Glad to hear it. There may be more to do after this to make it bootable again, but this is the hard part.

Let us know how it turns out.

B
 
Okay - the BOOTCAMP drive has been restored. I can see it in the finder, and can see the files on the disc. As you surmised, it is not bootable (holding down the Option key on start-up only shows the Mac OSX drive).

Awaiting further instructions . . . .

I'll have to dig a bit so it may take until tomorrow AM. I've worked out short notes on the image creation process Winclone uses, but haven't fully tackled restore yet.

EDIT: Would help to know if the OS is XP/Vista or 7.

Try this:
Code: 
sudo "/Volumes/Winclone/Winclone.app/Contents/Resources/gptrefresh" -f -w -m "/Users/Brian/Desktop/xpclone.winclone/boot.mbr" -a 3 -u -i 0x07 "/dev/disk0"

That's all for tonight.

Returns "command not found".

Thanks for the help -- see you tomorrow.

Sorry, I borrowed that from a Winclone log that had Winclone is an unusual spot and didn't fix it.

In order to see what it is doing it would be helpful to run showpart before and after gptrefresh. I posted it to a thread here: https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1070175/ (post #6). Download it and put it on your desktop.

Your Winclone seems to be at the "normal" spot so try:

Code: 
sudo ~/Desktop/showpart /dev/disk0 
sudo "/Applications/Winclone.app/Contents/Resources/gptrefresh" -f -w -m "/Users/Brian/Desktop/xpclone.winclone/boot.mbr" -a 3 -u -i 0x07 "/dev/disk0"
sudo ~/Desktop/showpart /dev/disk0

Please post the output.

Wanna try it too. I'll kee you guys posted..
 
Okay - that worked great! You are truly my hero for today.

I attached the output in Code block (had to add a disk unmount).

I've been able to boot in Bootcamp and VMWare - so I think I am covered.

I'm making another clone now off of the Bootcamp partition -- do you think I'm going to encounter this problem again as long as I continue to use a clone of this XP set-up?

I will keep all the info in this thread in a safe place in case I encounter this nightmare again.

Thanks again for all of your support of WinClone as the apparent resident expert on it -- too bad you can't "repackage" the original Winclone as a new product - I think most people would even be willing to purchase it as shareware (well, at least I would).

Cheers!

Glad it worked!

Thanks again for all of your support of WinClone as the apparent resident expert on it -- too bad you can't "repackage" the original Winclone as a new product - I think most people would even be willing to purchase it as shareware (well, at least I would).

I am actually actively working on a replacement for Winclone designed specifically to support Snow Leopard and Windows 7, which is part of my interest in understanding how it fails.

That sounds great -- look forward to seeing it sometime down the road.

Thanks again for all your help and patience.

Cheers!

Balamw, I must say, you are truly a hero...

I was wondering if you could take a look at my case, I´m having a similar problem.

I backed up my BOOT CAMP partition with Winclone, trying to restore I get the same error message... the last lines of the log are these ones:

I used the following command as I saw you told Zoesdad...

Code: 
sudo /usr/bin/hdiutil imageinfo -verbose -imagekey diskimage-class=CSparseBundleDiskImage "/Volumes/JucHDD1/Untitled.winclone/Windows.sparsebundle"

and I got this in return...
