Perhaps it works both ways. It makes sense.

You can run the "Repair Privileges" function of Disk Utility either from the OS X Install CD or when booted into X. It supposedly works a bit better from the CD. If you run Disk Utility while booted into X, you can only Repair the privileges of the boot volume. If you run Disk Utility while booted from the CD, you can only Repair privileges for a volume that has X installed. -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
