I am running a 17" g4, 10.5.8 with a 60 GB hard disk. (I know, a
dinosaur but need to be stateside to get a new one).
Disk utility reports the following errors CONSISTENTLY.
The only reason why I am bringing this request up is that a friend who
is running a macbook pro and 10.6.x also sees many of these same
"errors" and therefore, I thought I asked what they all mean, and if
there is a way to "fix" them:
Here is a sample of the errors I am seeing:
ACL found but not expected on "private/var/root" (about 5 or 6)
Permissions differ on "Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/
CodeResources", should be -rw-rw-r-- , they are lrw-rw-r--
(I get MANY of these!)(when I navigate to the file, the locked box is
NOT checked.)
Warning: SUID file "Applications/System Preferences.app/Contents/
Resources/installAssistant" has been modified and will not be repaired
(about 3 or 4)
The Disk utility reports:
"Finished verify/repair permissions on disk disk0s3 LeezeHD" but if I
run disk utility immediately again, the same errors are reported.
I have also tried disk warrior to fix these, applejack, and cocktail
version 4.7.
I have also performed a archive and install, a clean reinstall, and a
full wipe of the hard drive followed by a reinstall.
These errors persistently remain.
Thoughts?

PS: The G4 came originally with 10.4.0 and to upgrade to 10.5, I
bought the "generic" 10.5 disks.
