Creating a remote sparsebundle


  • Subject: Creating a remote sparsebundle
  • From: Luther Fuller <email@hidden>

The following snippet of code is run on my mini in Snow Leopard ...

"hdiutil create -type SPARSEBUNDLE -megabytes 4482 " & "-fs HFS+ -layout NONE " & imagePath & " -volname " & nameOfDisk
do shell script the result

imagePath is a folder on the startup disk on an old iBook running Tiger on which sharing is on and the connection is via AirPort with the remote disk mounted on the mini's desktop.

It fails to create the sparsebundle image file.

I have tried changing the permissions on the remote disk, but nothing. (#$&!!)

Anyone have any ideas?
