VHB "last mounted volume" Disk Errors |

Hi all, I've had OSX running on my machine for a while, starting with 10.0.4 up to the current version. My problem is that I'm getting disk errors reported in Norton when I restart and check in OS9. The most common error, which appears almost every time I check has to do with the Volume Header Block and something called the "last mounted volume" being incorrect. Occasionally I also get Directory errors if I don't go back into OS9 to check my disks for a while. I know that Ryan recommended turning off disk sleep, which I have done, and I still have it off. Is this still an issue? I have thought about switching the internal SCSI bus plug to the other one, which I have read causes fewer problems for some people. Has this solved a problem for anyone here? Isn't it slower? Anyone else getting disk corruption? (Regularly?) 7600/120 + NewerTech MAXPowr200 (604e); Internal SCSI bus: Apple CDROM, 36MB IBM, 3MB Quantum; (I'm pretty sure it's terminated correctly on the Quantum, but the pins on the IBM drive are a bit confusing. I don't think it has any termination set, though.) |

Disk sleep should be fine in Mac OS X 10.1 and later. Letting the whole system sleep still seems problematic, though. I'm assuming you are using the latest version of Norton? It's possible that there are some Mac OS X disk structures that previous versions of Norton don't understand. Do you see problems in regular use, or just problems reported by Norton? |
