[G4] rePanther install question

[Harry Freeman]

Greetings ( + )!( + )

I agree with Brian, as I believe that when the "Daily's, Weekly's and 
the Monthly" routines are done, they are only done on the drive that 
has the OS X operating system. That means that the other partitions are 
not cleaned up as they should during the maintenance operation.
