Re: [Avid-L2] MC6 TWO QUESTIONS: Write to internal drive and DNxHD options

I was just looking at the README, so this is fresh in my mind.

It says the root of the system drive has to have permissions set to
read/write for 'everyone'. It sounds like you might only be 2/3rds there!

Cheers,

I thought it was just changing the read/write permissions. I did that. The system, and me as a user, both have read write permissions for the internal drive. This is on a MacBookPro/Lion10.7.2/MC6.0. The MacBookPro is 2.53Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3.
