SD mounting images as read-only in 10.3.9?
Ok, so on my 10.3.9 machine, I try to set up a backup to a sparse image file on a network volume. I immediately run into the problem where SD can't create a sparse image on 10.3.9, so I create one manually in Disk Utility as per the workaround instructions here. Now, when I select it in SD and try to run the backup, SD appears to mount the image as read-only (icon in finder window, and can't copy anything to it manually), and fails. If I mount the image manually by double-clicking it, it mounts fine as read/write, and I can copy stuff to it in the Finder. Further, if I mount it manually in the Finder and then select it as a volume in SD, rather than as an image file, it also seems to work fine. It is a sparseimage, only about 50MB file when created for an 80GB image.
What's up?
