Renaming HD the catalogs are on


Recommended Posts

When I updated to lion, I named my disk MacHD_LION to differentiate it from my non-lion disk. At the time some of the software I depend on didn't work in Lion so this was an easy way to figure out which disk to startup with.

 

Now I just updated to Mountain Lion, and if I rename the startup disk to MacHD (without the LION in it) Retro tells me that it can't find the catalogs. I renamed it back to MacHD_LION and of course all is well.

 

Is there any way I can rediredt Retro where to look for the catalog files? I'm sure there is an easy way to do this but I can't seem to find it.

 

Thanks...eli

Of course I just figured it out !

 

I don't have that many media sets, so I just select the media set and then locate and point it at the catalog !

 

Duh !

 

I would still like to figure out a way to read the catalog without retrospect though so I can stop keeping track of the backed up files in a spreadsheet.

 

Thanks...eli
