System Image Utility - Issues with making bootable images
During the image creation process for a Netboot, the System Image Utility reports an error. I've included the log file (everything before the removal of the bad image below).

I have no issue creating images from restore disk sets (that shipped with machines) or retail masters of various OS's. This issue seems to be related to the particular drives I am trying to create images from.
The drives that give me this error are hardwarily OK and the software works great. I can boot from these drives and have no issues with the machines imaged from them after the fact. I just want to Netboot off of these so I don't have to lug a million drives around...
Any clue?
i know that was the case in Leopard and Snow Leopard but i just mounted a leopard image to create a new netrestore on my lion server. i was not able to boot any of my images created on Leopard or SL when running Lion Server. I assume i need to recreate the images on Lion. Right now my Lion server is using a leopard image as the source to create a netrestore i can push on the Lion server.

I am currently in the process of creating several images to restore for classroom purposes. I am wondering if it is possible to use the System Image Utility on a computer which has Server Admin Tools installed, then transfer that image folder directly to the "NetBoot" folder on our current Apple Netboot Server. Has anyone tried this and/or succeeded? I'd like to get some feedback before attempting it myself on our college's netboot server. Thanks!
We've run into a few problems concerning this process. When we create the image on a seperate machine from the server using SIU and then place it in the NetBoot folder, not every .nbi folder created works properly. We're running into errors that say "Could not find any scan information. The source needs to be imagescanned before it can be restored". This does not happen with every image, but it does happen with computers which have a lot of programs installed on them. Is there a way to imagescan the .nbi folder and/or resolve this issue without going through the process of making a completely new NetRestore image?

10.6.5 System Image Utility Issues
I'm having issues with SIU (again). It was working beautifully in 10.6.3/10.6.4 but since the 10.6.5 update, I can't seem to get a clean image of the client. The disk image is a 15.1GB image, when completed the image is only 14.xxGB. When trying to use the image, the image fails miserably. Ends up in a kernel panic and I end up rebooting.
This only started when trying to capture an image of the 10.6.5 client. I thought it was a mismatch in versions and so I updated the SIU to 10.6.5 as well. Then everything went up in smoke. The error I receive in the server log is : mDNSresponder[42] ERROR: getOptRdata – unknown opt 4
Any help would be appreciated.I am having the same issues. I'm not sure that the update was what caused the issues but it seems to have made it worse. I can get it to connect for a minute up to sometimes 30 min. Once it drops the connection I cannot get it to re-connect and the MacBook cannot see any of the networks in my neighborhood.
I have reset permissions, reset the PRAM, run all daily, weekly, and monthly scripts, and run just about everything on Onyx that I think would fix the issue. I am at a loss. -

System Image Utility fails to create boot image
I am not able to successfully build a boot image with the System Image Utility. The build starts and runs for about 1 minute and then I get 100's of ditto messages saying "No space left on device". There's plenty of space left on the device. Eventually I get a GUI message stating the there was an error creating the image. The image is of course unusable. This only happens on a Boot image. I have no problem making an install image from the same source. Is it just me??
Xserve G5 Dual Mac OS X (10.4.5)I had simililar problems with much headscratching as the result.
I found that whenever I tried to create a boot image with System Image Utility (SIU) using an image file of my existing system as the source SIU would fail with the annoying "No space left on device" message everytime. I did a little investigating and found that SIU always created a 400 MB disk image file to copy to. So the error message was correct as my source was way over 4 GB.
I checked the manual and found the embarrasingly simple solution. It's not mentioned directly, rather it is stated that when you want to create an boot image from an existing system you should boot the machine containing the desired system on disk from an alternate source and the run SIU on that machine. The "trick" is that you're running SIU with the existing system mounted as a disk.
So I went back to my Xserve, mounted the image so it appeared on the desktop. Ran SIU and chose the mounted volume as the source instead of the image file, and hey presto!

System image utility : creating Leopard & SL Netinstall images to share on Lion
Hi!
I have recently upgraded to Lion server from SL server, our server had 1 main purpose: host Leopard & SL Netinstall images as well as some netboot diagnostic drives.
It seems however that with a fresh install of Lion Server that trying to create a netinstall image from anything other then Lion doesnt work, even whipping out the old 10.6.3 install DVD mounts on the system but image utility shows no valid source.
i remember going from tiger sever to leopard that i could no longer make tiger images, and had to run from a tiger system to create them, but when i was running SL, i was able to share leopard images without issue.
So, is there anyway i can (without having to reinstall SL server ) i can create fresh netinstall images of 10.5 & 10.6OS's for my shiny new Lion server to share?
now unfortunatley the leopard & SL images i had previously are gone (a HDD crash giving me reason to upgrade) (yeah yeah i know, backups.. ) but i thought i would just reimage the files again as that is this servers only purpose.
Thank you kindly in advance, any help appreciated.
Richardi know that was the case in Leopard and Snow Leopard but i just mounted a leopard image to create a new netrestore on my lion server. i was not able to boot any of my images created on Leopard or SL when running Lion Server. I assume i need to recreate the images on Lion. Right now my Lion server is using a leopard image as the source to create a netrestore i can push on the Lion server.

System image utility set to create NetRestore Image, creates Netboot Disk instead
Hi, I'm trying to create some OS X 10.10.1 netrestore images and no matter what I do with selecting options SIU makes the image a netboot image instead of a netrestore image. Has anyone any suggestions?
As a workaround I've created my image and used the .dmg with an old working netrestore image.Hi Patrick,
If you are having issues creating a NetRestore image in System Image Utility, you may find the following articles helpful (apologies if you have already seen them):

IMac issues with displaying Internet images
Recently my iMac hasn't been displaying some images on the Internet correctly. For example the header of bbc.co.uk/news looks like a TV searching for a scrambled signal, but the rest of the images on the page are fine. There are a few other sites that I'm experiencing the same issue. When I try to save those images, they download with the same scrambled effect. I'm not sure what caused it to do this, but it also started on my Macbook Pro a few days after. It's not the browser because the same thing happens on Chrome, Safari and Firefox. I've tried resetting the cache and PRAM but to no success. Both computers are running OS X 10.9.
I'm not sure how to attach a file on this forum, but here is an imgur link to a screen shot of the problem http://imgur.com/7hGFSqE.
If anyone has seen something like this, please let me know.
Regards,Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, or by corruption of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2. -
Image size issues with processing
New to Adobe, I have had several issues with consumers images. I can not find how to save as jpeg and keep photo intergrity. Either the processer (local pharmacy, big name store.. etc) is cropping my images badly. I have been told this is my problem when I save in jpeg format. How do i protect my image? Resize with the pixels? Please help
Hi,
The most likely problem is that your camera is shooting in a different aspect ratio that you are trying to print in. This usually shows up by either cutting the tops/bottoms off or by cutting the sides off. Alternatively you may get a border top/bottom or sides.
If that is the problem, you will need to crop the photo before getting it printed.
So that we can help, can you please answer some questions.
1) What operating system are you using?
2) What version of PSE are you using?
3) What are the pixel dimensions of the photo or what camera are you using?
4) What size of photo are you trying to print (6" x 4"?) ?

System Image Utility seems stuck in "Create Image" step.
I'm building a NetRestore image with Snow Leopard 10.6.8 as base OS, but added 3rd party software packages. When I hit the "Run" button, it checkmarked all the steps before "Create Image." So I just left it to run the last step, but it's been running now for three days.
I didn't add THAT many packages. I checked the Force Quit window today, but SIU is not shown in red saying that it stopped responding. Creating this image shouldn't be taking this long.
SIU is running in XServe 3,1 with OS 10.6.8, and 24GB RAM.
Any suggestions?I do not believe that's
The server they have is in english yes.....
I can not believe!!!
i will try monday and tell you some thing.
Brian can you say one more thing
how do I create a script to insert in the post-install script They have in System Image Utility. "package and post-install script ."
The file need to be in " .sh "??
i can put the welcome message appear to select the portuguese language but i need to login in single user and put the;
/sbin/fsck -fy
/sbin/mount -uw /
touch /var/db/.RunLanguageChooserToo
Shutdown -h now
And works.
if i can put this in the installation process i thing it will will work.?
Thanks again for your help -
Issue with re-importing images after using Nik plugins
Currently, when images are edited in a Nik plug-in and saved back to Aperture, the project folder the image originated in is changed from being organized by "date" to "manual" and then that image is inserted as the first image in that folder. In past versions of Aperture, the image would be placed back into the project folder by date. At the very least I would like to have the control on where that image is placed. And my selection of how that project folder is organized should NEVER change unless asked.
Is there some hidden setting that can change this behavior?
KenUnfortunately, this issue was with some of the last versions of Snow Leopard as well. Oh, and for clarification, this happens with HDR efex. Others have commented that the Nik plugin is designed to work this way. Maybe, but I would like a choice where the image is returned. I believe it is a NIk issue but they won't admit it.
I did try your suggestion, but no luck. This image changed the project folder organization to "manual" and put the image first.

Image Gallery issues with Lightbox2 - please help!
Hello there,
I am using Lightbox2 image gallery. The loading.gif and close.gif aren't showing up and I think there's an issue with the path in the lightbox.js file. The loading and close gifs are located in the Images gallery so I changed the path in the lightbox.js file accordingly - I've gone through this many many times but they are still not showing up.
Can anyone please help me?
My website is: www.labellepetraie.com
Here's where I downloaded the script from: http://www.huddletogether.com/projects/lightbox2/#how
I have tried all the path combinations mentioned in their forum but to no avail. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you for any help you can offer to me.
Regards!Interesting. I've just looked at your scripts, and it would appear that you have blended two versions of lightbox2 on your page,. Is that possible? The lightbox.js file has no function called initLightbox() in it, whereas older versions do. So, try changing this:
window.onload = function(){ // use this instead of <body onload …>
MM_preloadImages('../3websites/home4.jpg','../3web sites/amenities1.jpg','../3websites/inquiry1.jpg','../3websites/rates1.jpg','../ 3websites/photos1.jpg');
initLightbox();
to this:
window.onload = function(){ // use this instead of <body onload …>
MM_preloadImages('../3websites/home4.jpg','../3web sites/amenities1.jpg','../3websites/inquiry1.jpg','../3websites/rates1.jpg','../ 3websites/photos1.jpg');
//initLightbox();
to see if that works. I think so. Turns out the initLightbox() function call that we activated by fixing the code before is no longer needed by the lightbox2 script as of v2.04! I see that it still tells you to put that function call in the body tag, but i think that is wrong (which is very weird to say, can I really be right???). If you look at the example page online you'll see that he uses this body tag:
<body>
and there are no onload's anywhere.
Let me know.

Image Quality issue with script
So I recently wrote a simple script to output an image at a bunch of different resolutions. However, I am running into an image quality issue that I don't run into when I do the same thing manually.
Here is an example image showcasing the image: http://terminalvelocity.ca/temp/notworking.jpg
As you can see along the top of the model's forhead there is destinct color fragmentation. Which seems very strange.
Here is the script, it is pretty simple, it asks for a few simple config options. (the above image was created using default settings). It then figures out the correct ratios and loops through doing each resize, saving the image, then reverting the history so each iteration uses the original image data and not the resized version:
doc = app.activeDocument;
openFilePath = Folder.selectDialog ("Where do you want the images to be saved?");
maxSize = Number(prompt("What would you like to be the maximum length of the long edge? (Image is never upsized) (pixels)", 2800));
minSize = Number(prompt("What would you like to be the minimum length of the long edge? (pixels)", 100));
gap = Number(prompt("How much smaller should each image be? (pixels)", 100));
quality = Number(prompt("What quality would you like the JPG exported as (0-12)", 10));
var size;
var primary;
var secondary;
if(doc.width > doc.height){
primary = doc.width;
secondary = doc.height;
}else{
primary = doc.height;
secondary = doc.width;
var ratio = secondary/primary;
var size = [];
for(var i = maxSize;i>minSize;i-=gap){
var p = i
var s = i * ratio;
size.push([p,s]);
var w;
var h;
var n;
for(var i in size){
if(doc.width > doc.height){
w = n = size[i][0];
h = size[i][1];
}else{
w = size[i][1];
n= h = size[i][0];
if(doc.width >= w && doc.height >= h){
doc.resizeImage(w,h,null,ResampleMethod.BICUBICSHARPER);
jpgFile = new File(openFilePath+"/"+n+".jpeg" )
jpgSaveOptions = new JPEGSaveOptions()
jpgSaveOptions.embedColorProfile = false
jpgSaveOptions.formatOptions =
FormatOptions.STANDARDBASELINE
jpgSaveOptions.matte = MatteType.NONE
jpgSaveOptions.quality = quality
app.activeDocument.saveAs(jpgFile, jpgSaveOptions, true,Extension.LOWERCASE);
doc.activeHistoryState = doc.historyStates[doc.historyStates.length-2];
In comparison, here is an example of an image of the exact same resolution that does not exhibit this issue at all:
The steps taken to save this image were as follows: http://photography.terminalvelocity.ca/content/images/2012/avery_konrad_6/horizontal/1500. jpg
Image > Resize > Bicubic Sharper (1500px);
Save For Web
Jpeg
Quality 75
Optimzed: true
Progressive: false
Blur: 0
Convert to sRGB: true
Anyway, as you can see, The manually exported image does not have any of the quality issues that are present within the scripted image. I am pretty new to photoshop scriping so am assuming it has something to do with me missing some sort of option in the save settings. Any help would be swell.
Also note, this doesn't occur on all images, I usually don't see an issue when using the script, however, something about the tones of this particular photo make it really obvious.
I am using the latest version of Photoshop CS6 (creative cloud) on Max OSX
thanks so much!I'm on windows find the bicubicsharper does not work well it the image being resized has been highly sharpened all ready. Because of my Photoshop preferences I had to make minor modification to your script. I'm also a bit colorblind so i don't see many color issues so I include a screen capture if what windows does with your image and script.
var orig_ruler_units = app.preferences.rulerUnits;
app.preferences.rulerUnits = Units.PIXELS; // Set the ruler units to PIXELS
doc = app.activeDocument;
openFilePath = Folder.selectDialog ("Where do you want the images to be saved?");
maxSize = Number(prompt("What would you like to be the maximum length of the long edge? (Image is never upsized) (pixels)", 2800));
minSize = Number(prompt("What would you like to be the minimum length of the long edge? (pixels)", 100));
gap = Number(prompt("How much smaller should each image be? (pixels)", 100));
quality = Number(prompt("What quality would you like the JPG exported as (0-12)", 10));
var size;
var primary;
var secondary;
if(doc.width > doc.height){
primary = doc.width;
secondary = doc.height;
}else{
primary = doc.height;

Issue with color profile image processing
Their seems to an issue with the iPhone displaying an image which has a Color profile of: Generic HDR Profile. The image appears very dark and nearly unviewable. This has been frustrating to trouble shoot becasue the image will display correctly on the computer, but when it is viewed on the iPhone it looks completely different. When images have other color profiles such as sRGB the images will look the same on both platforms. When an image has a Generic HDR color profile it will not display correctly on the iPhone.
Anyone else come across this problem?When PSE gets weird, the first thing to do is to reset the preferences. Go to the editor preferences>general, click this button and restart the editor:
