Speaking of Applejack, does anyone know how to get it to clean user
caches and check user prefs when the user folder is on a different
drive? I've tried entering the user name, user number, and file path
but it won't accept any of them. I asked on the Applejack forum, and
submitted a bug report, with no response to either.
Do it from OnyX.
The *point* of AppleJack is to address *immediate* deep system
problems on the boot volume, to get you up and running. If it ain't
on the system volume then it ain't important.
I can clean/check them with MainMenu or Onyx, but it would be easier
to do it with Applejack since I run it anyway.
Run it anyway? AppleJack is NOT a general maintenance tool. It is
the honking big sledgehammer you use when your system is farked.
