No such option
Authored by: sjonke on Jul 30, '02 10:53:03AM

I just tried this and there is no such option available. I get the usual privileges panel with everything disabled (and no sign of any "ignore privileges" option, disabled or not) because the volume is owned by "system". Is this only the case if you have made yourself the owner of the volume instead of system or are logged in as root? In an case I hope it isn't normally available even to admins. It sounds like bad news, no?

I suspect that this option is not available on the boot volume - the one containing the OS in use.

Hmmm, good point. The 'Jobs' volume in question is a separate partition I made. I'll have to go and check who the owner is, though I don't recall explicitly manipulating it, i.e. it's pretty much a straight, raw, HFS+ partition.
