Actually, his article brings my memory into question. Maybe in Tiger and
Leopard I repaired on the installation disk but I don't remember this.

I never go to repair permissions in the recovery hd or on another
installation if I have one unless there are continued problems after
repairing permissions right there in the installation. I also never bother
with verify permissions as I am just going to have to repair permissions if
anything is found and almost always something needs fixing. But these are
matters of personal preference. Snow leopard does not have a recovery
partition but all of us repaired premissions in Tiger, Leopard and Snow
leopard right on the installation without a recovery partition. Now, if you
are going to repair disk (note the difference), then it is best if not
necessary to be in the recovery partition or in another installation - for
instance, some of us have a backup on an external drive. If somebody told you
that you should not have been able to repair permissions on your main HD,
that person may have forgotten how things were done before there was a
recovery hd, and actually, I find that this does now seem like ancient
history to me even though in reality it wasn't that many years ago, because
we have had four releases plus the beta now being run since then.

Ok, have a question for anyone that might be able to answer this.
I did the steps that i was given to varify my permissions and then repair
the permissions .
I did this while booted into my main hd volume.
Someone told me that i should have not been able to do this because
according to them that snow leppard does not have to their knoledge a
recovery partition.
I did not use the snow leppard dvd.
So does snow leppard have a recovery partition or Should i have used the dvd?
I know the repair of the permissions sure did help and that i am thankful
for.
