Also this won’t work if you forget the $ before sudo (with no space) and don’t forget the spaces after -source and after -target. Here’s the complete right syntax.

$sudo asr –noverify –source /Volumes/xxx/osx_leopard_snow.dmg –target /Volumes/osxleopardsnow

I’m glad this tip was helpful.
@Yannick: Most shells in UNIX & Windows use whitespace as a delimiter. You can still use the name UNTITLED I, but you would have to use quotes, i.e.
sudo asr –noverify –source /Volumes/xxx/osx_leopard_snow.dmg –target ‘/Volumes/UNTITLED 1′

Really useful! But with valid commands. U have to read man asr!

Example:
sudo asr –noverify –source /Volumes/xxx/osx_leopard_snow.dmg –target /Volumes/osxleopardsnow

Do not use the default name like UNTITLED 1 cause it read the spaces and give for “1″ an option meaning…

Thx the post anyway!
