AppleJack Changelog

What's new in AppleJack 1.6

Oct 9, 2013
  • Snow Leopard compatibility [feature 2845796)
  • Improved limits on output from syslog to STDOUT
  • Simplified startup of services on Leopard and Snow Leopard
  • Fixed bug in creation of user account lists in Snow Leopard where system accounts would show up
  • S.M.A.R.T. status verification is now being done in the expert mode. I still want to implement this using smartmontools, but for now diskutil will do.
  • Blessing of Mac OS X System folders on attached volumes is now possible. This is a primitive bless, ie, it does not create boot files, but simply blesses the chosen System folder and (optionally) sets it to be used for startup on next launch.

New in AppleJack 1.5 (Aug 30, 2008)

  • Leopard compatibility! (Thanks Steve Anthony!)
  • Improved console output suppression from launchd processes.
  • Improved the process of finding valid user directories, drawing on netinfo, /etc/passwd, and /Users directory as needed. Users can now be chosen by user id or user name, as well as the old method of entereing the home directory.
  • Logging is more complete
