I don't know about recovering the folders contents, but you should
recreate the folder so that you can at least login as yourself. As root
use md to make the folder and chown to assign yourself as the owner of
the folder.

If you downloaded .deb packages you can move them to /sw/fink/debs and the use dselect
to install them. You also save yourself a step by letting deselect, or apt-get,
download them for you.

olution is just a tough build, even on Linux. It requires all of the
core Gnome libraries, Bonobo and a lot more. I expect we'll see it for
Mac OSX befoe too long but I wouldn't hold my breath.

system-xfree86 is kind of a place holder that tells fink you already
installed XFree86 by some other means.

Aside from the fact that one is a unix command line utility and the
other is a a Mac GUI program, the real question is weather Apple
re-wrote fsck to work on HFS/HFS+ volumes, and if fsck is called at
mount time the way it is on other Unix systems. I'm not sure about this.
For HFS/HFS+ volumes Dis
works. Just place the .deb files in the same
directory under /sw/fink/dists/ as they were on the source machine and do 'fink
install packagename' . Fink will see it already has a binary and just call dpkg to
finish the install.

Sure, just put them in /sw/src and fink will find them there and fink
won't bother downloading them when you do a 'fink install package'.

ving to be
concerned with clobbering the system programs by the same name. This is
a special issue for MacOSX and the case-insensitivity of HFS+. Besides,
its widely agreed that putting "." in your path is a bad idea.

I have a Logitech scroll mouse. I do NOT enable emulation in XDarwin. Cut
and paste work fine between X apps and Mac apps. The scroll wheel clicks as
the middle button (paste) and the mouse behaves just like a 3 button mouse
on any Unix box. The wheel also scrolls Xterms.

I always use these opportunities to plug WindowMaker. WindowMaker
installs in just a few minutes with Fink and is very stable. Its code
base is based on NeXT which makes it very compatible with MacOS X.

uld be wrong, though, that's just what I think I
read somewhere. I use "source" because it's a tiny bit more legible.
Should I switch all of my shell scripts to use "." instead?

Install system-xfree86 if you already have XFree86 installed. Install
system-xtools if you already have Tenon XTools installed. Its one or the

I'm not sure why you had to partition into 2.2 GB segments. The issue
with MacOSX on the old hardware is that the boot partiton must be fully
contained in the first 8GB of the drive. I have a 30GB disk in my beige
G3/233 which I partitioned into two 4GB (actually slightly less) drives
one each for
