[X4U] Folder Views

[B.ru c-e •K1u-tch-k0]

I seem to recall that under 10.3.x, the hard drive itself did not  
necessarily adopt the view that you specified when you clicked on the  
finder icon in the dock. This had something to do with permissions. I  
believe that I fixed it by logging in as root, opening the hard drive  
icon, setting the view, and then closing the window. This new view  
would persist for all users after that.
