I used to run Snow Leopard, and also use to use AppleJack 1.6. Now that I have Lion, 1.6 is not useful. I cannot find it as a Program or Utility to uninstall it. How do I do so? Thanks.

Open the terminal and type the following command:

sudo /var/root/Library/Scripts/applejack.sh uninstall

I have a question. On this page: AppleJack:Troubleshooting Tool for Macs - Browse /AppleJack/AppleJack-1.6 at SourceForge.net
it states that to uninstall AppleJack you should type in the command:

sudo /private/var/root/Library/Scripts/applejack.sh uninstall

The sourceforge page has the word "private" as part of the command. Which of the two should I use?

They're just two different paths that lead to the same thing. For me, the previous path worked fine. If it comes back failed, you know the uninstall script lives in the other path.

I have to point that AppleJack is working just fine for me under Lion (latest version).
