Trouble using Disk Utility !

[VWJF]

Hi,

I have a G4 Dual 500, 1 Gig Ram, running OS 10.4.11é  

When I try to run disk utility to repair permissions lately, it tells me :

Utilitaire de disque a interrompu autorisations de réparation sur “Documents & Applications” car l’erreur suivante est survenue :

Aucun paquet valide

Réparation des autorisations pour “Documents & Applications”
Erreur : Aucun paquet valide


Réparation des autorisations terminée

Which basically means that it interrupts the process because there are no valid packets....

I updated to the latest OS to see if that would solve the issue, and no, I stll get the same thing.  However my computer dooes work wonderfully besides that !

Any clues ?

Thanks !

JF

A quick Google turned up.

Une recherche sur Google a retourne. (?)

Simply do the following ...

Insert the System Install Disk, AS IF you were re-installing your Operating System.
After selecting your language, go to the UTILITIES menu at the top of the window and select Disc Utility
From there run REPAIR DISK PERMISSIONS (on the left)  and  REPAIR DISK (on the right)
Run BOTH at least twice until you get 2 consecutive good results with no repairs or changes required.

You hit it right on the nail....I deleted them by mistake trying to make room as my disk was getting full and I couldn't get a new one at the time....

Now I have 0s10.4, but only have the CD for Tiger....I moved temporarily, and my disks are at home, and I will be unable tyo get them for another few months..That might be an issue..on reinstalling the packages, dont you think ?
