I ran OnyX 1.9.0 release and after it verified the volume it said it needed repairs. So I booted off of my Leopard install disk... ran Disk Utility.... and it came back saying it was ok. So I'm just curious if Disk Utility is making a mistake or if it is OnyX that is making the mistake.

Flaw in OnyX or Disk Utility? - Richard Knight

I had the same behavior on a MacBook Pro after an Erase & Install installation of Leopard. I tend to believe the Leopard installer in this instance, and if you think about it, if the Installer says it's OK then it can't repair anything anyway.

Same thing happened here. I ran utility and all was OK.

Exactly the same here. I then ran Disk Warrior 4 from the CD and it did make some needed repairs. I had not seen this in previous versions, and will hold off using it until you tell me you don't see it again, Dester ;-)
