Ok thanks . (I was just trying to figure out a method to not loose my hat on my 4 tb drive ) -ongoing project.
BTW there is a good book with the internals of MAC (but it did not help me that much, maybe I'm just "square" headed).
called : mac_os_x_and_ios_internals To the Apple Core (J. Levin). mac_os_x_snow_leopard_the_missing_manual is also pritty comprehensive & good , but more for users than dev's ( by Dav. Pogue).
I have not yet but I also haven't dedicated much time to it lately. I'll probably give it another whack this weekend and report back with my results.
Sorbet sucks (no offense whoever developed it!) and is a cheesy gimmick and my biggest problem with it is that it changes the version number for no good reason and breaks all kinds of application version checks (among other issues!)
I'm a little worried that Snow Leopard, at this moment, would be too unstable as a daily driver, and I'm better off on 10.5.8 for now. But you ostensibly are using it as a daily driver, so maybe I have no idea what I'm talking about.
