Well, this didn't work out.
disk utility may have delivered a final blow, but only after the new copied system failed to boot in spite of being selected as Startup Disk in System Preferences.
Mistakenly thinking I had booted from the new system, I ran repair permissions on that drive. (I know, I could have told I was not booted from it if I'd noticed the enabled "repair disk" button.) So, repair permissions proceeded to do something I've never seen it do before, "repair" a symbolic link. to wit: "Repairing permissions for “haffanikkel” Determining correct file permissions. Symbolic link ./mach->mach_kernel repaired Permissions repair complete" What would be the ramifications of this? And any hope of ever making this disk bootable at this point? |
