Ongeloof Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 With the superb find of secrets, a great prefPanel download, you can find out what goes on behind the scenes of your mac, or hackintosh, especially with the "Show hidden folders" option... When i click on my Macintosh HD, i se only a few folder and being an ex windows user and no seeing a windows asking to show hidden folders, to me, it was a case of " what you see if what you get". Oh No. Here is just a simple SS of the Home Folder! Pretty cluttered huh?! Bertrand Serlet did an excellent cover up... Think Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(MoC) Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Should we reveal that there is a /Volumes directory? Yeah, OSX has hidden system files for its uses. Think Mark, boot up a copy of Linux and tell me if the directory structure is similar.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

U.C. Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 I agree, it should. A person who doesnot know what the root directory is should get a n00b badge. What do you say Sabr?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
