Has anyone experienced problems with the "Mirror" CDEV (version 2.2) which is part of the MacTools package? The CDEV keeps an invisible "delete tracking file" in the system folder which allows you to undelete any trashed file, assuming the actual disk tracks have not been over-written. Periodically I find that this delete tracking file is damaged, and I am forced to use the CDEV to remove and reinstall the file. Of course, this always happens right when I need to restore something I threw away inadvertantly. Any ideas as to the problem? I'm running system 6.0.5 on a Mac II with all kinds of extra inits (albeit a carefully checked-out set that has given me no problems; no other inits or cdevs which track file deletes, no defragmenter running). My only guess is that I am near the stops on disk space- an 80 meg disk which sometimes has only 1 or 2 meg free. David Artis
