RE: [jug-discussion] drive recovery software os x
If it helps, most installations will use HFS+ (apple's filesystem - data/resource fork, etc). It is possible to create ufs/ffs bsd filesystems but it would be rare that this is done (performance is terrible, classic doesn't work, some carbon apps don't work, etc). -Original Message- From: Warner Onstine [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, June 20, 2002 9:41 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [jug-discussion] drive recovery software os x - Original Message - From: Paul Scott [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, June 20, 2002 9:21 PM Subject: Re: [jug-discussion] drive recovery software os x Warner Onstine wrote: Hi all, I've recently had a crash (self-induced I think) of my OS, and while I've done this before this is the first time I've had serious problems recovering.

Hi all, I've recently had a crash (self-induced I think) of my OS, and while I've done this before this is the first time I've had serious problems recovering. Does anyone have Disk Warrior for Mac?

Our entry to the Mac world is very recent and very shallow. Basically we like it because it is unix based but has a usable GUI. Most of our I.T. department solutions for Macs involves jokes about simultaneously pressing the jump and kick buttons while rotating the joystick to the left. By the way, have you tried that? No, I have been going into Single-User Mode which basically constitutes a unix zsh prompt without mounting the drive and attempting to run fsck, but I keep getting a zsh: Input/Output error: fsck. Which I haven't been able to find information about online. -warner Good luck!
