I think I did the same, but on other attempts, I also used Carbon
Copy Cloner to move /sw to /Volumes/OtherPartition/sw, and "ditto
-rsrcFork /sw /Volumes/OtherPartition/sw". Both worked fine, as far
as I remember.
Some tools e.g., AquaTerm, have resource folk. So, if you have these
tools installed, hfstar is recommended over tar.
and if you add a line like one of the following into the file
/etc/fstab you can even keep the new seperated Volume as if it were
directly under '/'
the following example shows how I made my system recognise the
'/Volumes/Users -Volume' (a seperate partition on my harddrive) as the
regular /Users path. I also added another partition called tmp as the
/tmp directory.
# /etc/fstab
LABEL=Users /Users hfs rw 1 2
LABEL=tmp /tmp hfs rw 1 2
#eof
so if you want to have the /sw part in another seperate partition I'd
call that partition 'sw' and I'd add the following line to /etc/fstab:
LABEL=sw /sw <type of file system> rw 1 2
and if you don't want these partitions to show up on your desktop,
then use the SetFile program in /Developer/Tools/ to hide whatever
partition you don't want to see in aqua. (see
http://developer.apple.com/tools/mpw-tools/commandref/setfile.html)
hope I could finally contribute something to the list as well *g*
merry x-mas to everyone!
