Re: jaguar on beige g3 blues

Hi. I've wiped out my drive and have reinstalled OS X in a 10 GB 
partition and will try to move the user directories to the larger 
partition.  The error that DiskWarrior was giving me after I moved the 
drive to another computer as a slave drive (it eventually stopped 
booting up in OS 9) was that "keys are out of order" and that the 
directory could not be rebuilt, nor could it graph it. 

Here is my question now:
What is the best way to handle the Applications?  I wanted to have the 
application in the larger parition too since I'm not going to have 
enough room in the System partition.  What I liked about one partition 
was that I didn't have to alias anything and all the built in folders in 
OS X I could use just as they came.  I was reading some of the archives 
on this issue and it seemed to get really complicated after a while.  I 
got a little lost after a while. 

Basically, would I just install programs on the large parition when the 
installer lets me specify a location, and when it doesn't, just drag and 
drop the programs from the official Applications folder to the large 
partition?  Is that basically it?  Or is there a way to configure the 
system so that I wouldn't even need to do that?

Thanks,

Felix

If you get another drive and move your video work to it Then you can 
wipe the main drive and reinstall. You are correct about the ATA; If 
it worked it works. No telling what has gone wrong with the current 
system; It would seem to be a major problem. When you get a new drive 
in and save your files you could run Norton and Disk Warrior from the 
new drive to get an idea of what went wrong.

Thanks to all.
I have like 80 GB of gigabytes of digital video in the main user. I 
guess
I'll need to get a second drive to be able to move those.
