TinkerToolSystem: Lion build 11C74 fails file copy with emulated attributes
Mini (mid-2011, 2.3, Lion) -- hasn't been stable, ever.
Today I tried TinkerToolSystem Release 2
It only found one problem:
-- System Maintenance Diagnostics
----Check File Copy Operations (between internal and external drive, both directions)
------Test 2: "Copying files with emulated extended attributes" failed
Result: "Mac OS X 10.7.2 Build 11c74 has been tested. It has failed in at least one test. Be prepared for corruption of file attributes or failure of the copy operation when using the Finder to copy between file systems of type HFS and HFS"
My guess-- file corruption since when I first copied files onto this Mac (Migration Assistant from a 2007 Mini)
But -- is this an OSX problem? A hardware problem?
Anyone have any ideas? I want to back up before taking the Mac to the Apple Store.
I haven't gotten for-sure trustworthy backups since I bought this Mac.
This is the only hint I've found at a verified problem -- but I don't know what the problem is.
Mac mini, Mac OS X (10.7.2)
