I recently bought I new primary sata drive for a MacPro and loaded
Leopard on it while keeping the 2ndary internal sata drive ... which

Now under leopard, under permissions, it still sees an "unknown"
account which is the previous Tiger owner and it doesn't allow any
writing/ deleting on the 2ndary drive. I know how to change the
permissions and ownership but don't know exactly which should be
listed.
The new Home acct name, System, Admin, Everyone etc. Usually there
is a cascading list of 2 or 3 but I can't remember what they should
be.
Can anyone tell me?
Click on the drive's icon. Right click and select Get Info. At the
bottom of that window check the box for "Ignore ownership on this
volume." Voila!
