[Ti] Carbon Copy Cloner

[Pedro Vera]

The article I read earlier today refers to people that updated with the 
firewire drive plugged-in. I upgraded after running my mirror and 
disconnecting the drive and there was no data loss. Today I ran the 
psync patch as explained at 
http://www.dan.co.jp/cases/macosx/psync.html and my mirror job is 
running as usual. And yes, my external drive has the affected Oxford 
chipset.

The one consistent problem I am having with Panther is that every day a 
different application has a corrupted preferences file. Day 1 was the 
print center app, day 2 was BBEdit Pro 7 (minutes after I was bragging 
to the BBEdit list that mine was running perfect, I deserved that one). 
I am still waiting for the one that is going to get corrupted today O_o

Thanks,
