tried cloning my 80GB 5G about 74GB full to a partition about 83GB large.

-SuperDuper & Disk Utility stalled at less than a MB copy speeds. 10 hours on SD, and nowheresvile
-TuneTech doesn't work on video iPods
-CarbonCopyCloner stalls in the same way as the first two.
What is the matter? The destination volume is formatted as MacOSExtended(Journaled).

Please help. I have to clone my iPod before a repair
Thank you

PS not running iTunes or any other app when I do this, and drives verify.

has anybody ever tried this? Aside from ripping the tunes seperately? I want to have a backup clone or image to sync to regularly

Would you like to not post 3 copies of this, two of them in unrelated forums?
