Booted under Lion that was on an external disk, I was able to user Xcode 3.2.6 from my internal Snow Leopard startup disk and it seemed to work fine. But when I tried to initially install it under Lion, it wouldn't work. So, it seems that if you get it installed before booting under Lion, you are able to use it. -Laurent. -- Laurent Daudelin AIM/iChat/Skype:LaurentDaudelin http://www.nemesys-soft.com/ Logiciels Nemesys Software [email protected] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacFUSE" group.
