Desktop not retained when booting from clone - me too
Hi,
Quote:
My desktop image was not retained, though all my data (music, photos, docs, etc) appears to be in place. I'm using Snow Leopard 10.6.1 with SuperDuper v2.6.2. I have a brand new WD640 GB drive, connected through an OWC enclosure with a FW400 connection. I formatted the drive and did the zero-out option per the SD user guide, and then let SD do the initial backup. When I booted from the cloned drive I got the default desktop background rather than my own. I don't recall having ever encountered this behavior with 10.5.x, though honestly it's been a while since I've tried to boot off an external drive cloned with SuperDuper. Any ideas on things to check? Should I be worried that other bits of my data might not have been fully backed up? Edit - There are two accounts on this machine, my own, and "guest". There are no other accounts. I'll try the experiment above when I get a chance. Last edited by ramblinwreck001; 10-21-2009 at 11:49 AM. Reason: Added additional information. |
