Bruce, your right on with the issues confronting me.
In passing, would it be correct to view Disk Utility as the X replacement for Disk First Aid in OS 9? Disk Utility sparkled with red errors - but THEN REPORTED ALL FIXED. Again ran Disk Warrior with the same reports of (in step 4, halts) with errors 2156 and 2180. Again, I remind that this same version of DW has been run from OS 9 for years with no problems - it fixes all out of orders in both OS9 and 10.2.8 as they both reside on the same partition. BUT since using AppleJack, DiskWarrior will NOT RUN. Have others had same experience with Applejack? ===================================================== > From: Bruce Johnson <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: DiskWarrior will not run after Applejack ran. > To: [email protected] > Date: Wednesday, May 27, 2009, 8:56 AM > On May 26, 2009, at 5:40 PM, tonycd wrote: > > I have 10.4.11 on a Power Mac.
