Originally, the OLD version (10.8) was a symlink to an external hard drive.
However, I deleted the symlink and re-put the /sw directory back on the main Hard Drive (the drive being booted from). I even rm -r¹d /sw a few times, just because I wanted to preserve /sw, since bootstrap will not overwrite /sw On a whim, I tried using using bootstrap and setting up /sw2same issue. Here¹s what it looks like: sh-3.2# rm -r /sw sh-3.2# cd /sw sh-3.2# ls ._bin ._lib ._src bootstrap include share ._etc ._sbin ._var etc lib src ._include ._share bin fink sbin var sh-3.2# ls -l total 64 -rwxr-xr-x+ 1 root admin 277 May 21 21:43 ._bin -rwxr-xr-x+ 1 root admin 277 May 21 21:43 ._etc -rwxr-xr-x+ 1 root admin 277 May 21 21:43 ._include -rwxr-xr-x+ 1 root admin 277 May 21 21:43 ._lib -rwxr-xr-x+ 1 root admin 277 May 21 21:43 ._sbin -rwxr-xr-x+ 1 root admin 277 May 21 21:43 ._share -rwxr-xr-x+ 1 root admin 277 May 21 21:43 ._src -rwxr-xr-x+ 1 root admin 277 May 21 21:43 ._var drwxr-xr-x+ 10 root admin 340 May 21 21:43 bin drwxr-xr-x+ 7 root wheel 238 May 21 21:43 bootstrap drwxr-xr-x+ 7 root wheel 238 May 21 21:43 etc drwxr-xr-x+ 6 root wheel 204 May 21 21:40 fink drwxr-xr-x+ 2 root admin 68 May 21 21:43 include drwxr-xr-x+ 4 root admin 136 May 21 21:43 lib drwxr-xr-x+ 2 root admin 68 May 21 21:43 sbin drwxr-xr-x+ 12 root admin 408 May 21 21:43 share drwxr-xr-x+ 19 root wheel 646 May 21 21:43 src drwxr-xr-x+ 10 root wheel 340 May 21 21:43 var sh-3.2# Which makes it ODD that it¹s creating ._ files Also, I did a sweep deleting any ._ files found same issue. It never did it before...
