Q: Problem creating a disk image from a folder
I am having a problem creating a disk image from a particular folder.
Every time I try I get an error message"
"Unable to create 'folder name' Operation not supported.
I can create disk images from other folders OK
When I looked in the console file there was the following messages:

There seems to be a problem with the file 000_Theatre.theme
When I use Finder try to copy this file to the same volume the disk image was being created on it copies OK.
I also checked the permissions of the file and they appear OK.
Any help with this appreciated. The volume this file is on is dying, Disk Utilities reports Volume is faulty and cannot be repaired.
