Another view. I believe that it is best to run diagnostic/repair softawre
after you have started up using the System CD. So I have a small partition
on my HD on which I have Disk First Aid, TechTool Pro [and a few other
things including a virginal OS].So when I do my regular maintenance schedule
I boot from the system CD then run the utilities. That approach means you
can not defrag the partition containing the utilities but as they don't get
amended that is of no consequence. I have an idea that Apple recommends that
if you use DFA then do so after booting from the System CD and use the DFA
on that CD, but I can not remember where I read that.
