Unable to create DMG after personalization error

[s3hokim]

Hi, I'm using fuji really well.
While I was working on it, I found a strange error and wrote it.
After the error below occurred, the 'sparse image' was generated normally, but the 'dmg' file was not finally made.

Thank you for reporting this information.

Can you please tell me more about the environment? What model of Mac is it and what operating system is it running?

Hello, I am absolutely delighted with this tool.
After a test run (my own MacBook), I tried it on a Macbook Pro M1 (macOS 15.1). At the first attempt I also received an error message when remounting target volume that it can no longer be mounted. Then i formatted the hard disk in MacOS (Journaled) and ran the program on another USB stick. The backup went smoothly until the end, but resulted in the error message shown here (hdiutil....). Then i converted the finished image “sparseimage” into a dmg image and imported it into Axiom. Runs...

Thx for your work - great JOB ;-)

I couldn't get any information about the MacBook that caused the error because it was a problem during forensic work with an external company. (Only about 8 out of 60 had this problem.) What I checked on the field was that Finder or Disk Utility could not unmount the volume in any way. It's circled saying it's still in use.

Hi, sorry for the late response. I wasn't in the office until today and was only able to test the app again this morning with my MacBook. I formatted the external hard disk as exFAT as “Fuji” and copied the Fuji.dmg to it. During the ASR process, this time it ran the process up to the actual conversion (sparseimage - dmg) (I have attached a picture with an error message). I then ejected the hard disk, remounted it and converted to dmg with the hard disk tool.

Folks, thank you for the provided information. I hope to be able to test on the latest macOS version, soon.

By the way @whiteman7, I had to edit your comment because it seems that you replied via email and this messes up the formatting of the content. It was not very readable. I suggest that, for future comments, you opt for posting directly on the GitHub website.

In any case, thank you again for providing the information above.
