George:

You're right. Thanks for pointing that out. Of course, that's fine. The
original discussion was about booting from something OTHER than the usual
boot hard drive (DiskWarrior's CD). However, my experience is there's a
significant number of Mac OS X users who will on occasion use the Disk
Utility on the install disk and in the case of permissions repair, all
versions of OS X Disk Utility are definitely NOT interchangeable. And in the
case of Leopard, the older versions are downright destructive.
 
Regards,

Don
