Hidden Folders

[jeff87 0]

When I Restore an image with retrospect 6.0.212 on OSx Tiger I always see ailses for the folders etc, tmp, and Var is there a way I can fix this I've read that this is a bug with the OS but I was still wondering if there was something I could do to fix this.

 

Thanks

Hi

 

I'm not familiar with this one. Are you restoring the entire disk or just a few files?

 

Thanks

There's nothing to fix.

 

The file/folder structure of OS X includes some items that the Finder hides when you are booted from the drive.

 

When you view an OS X drive attached to a machine running off some other volume, the Finder will display some (although not all) of these items.

 

Retrospect restores a drive completely, including these items (otherwise it wouldn't work). This is not a Retrospect issue/problem; it is just how the operating sytem behaves.
