No go said it couldn't find the file I put it in the usr/bin folder... I am pretty sure...
I am going to check it out again in a few minutes.-Emersive

I just checked it out, I made the mistake of putting in the dir /usr/bin instead of /usr/local/bin, I checked my local folder and it doesn't have a bin folder that I could see... I am just going to change the line from sudo sh /usr/local/bin/aquafix with /usr/local/bin/aquafix sorry guys I will report again as soon as possible.

No go same problem, this time I know I typed it in correctly, it said there was no aquafix file in that directory... I am wondering if it is a permission issue is that possible since it was created under a different user and different install. Well guys I don't really no what to do... I feel like I have hit a major wall. I sorry guys... I am sure you are probably tired of my posts.... anyways if anyone has any ideas or perhaps and ideas where I might of messed up... let me know

this is what I did...
1)I put the unzipped aquafiles into the library on crippled drive
2)I put the file aquafix into a hidden folder on my crippled drive using safari
file:///
oh my gosh found the problem haha.... wow shoot me now!

THANKS EVERYONE!!!!!
 
It worked succesfully right now I am writing this in my now WORKING Drive... thank you all for this... I hope others can learn from my mistakes! I forgot to write what made me realize I had put it in the wrong place...

I went back and went into safari and went to the /usr/ folder and found that it opened the one on my working drive... so I had to type in
put it else where, I also ran into permission problems trying to put the aquafix file in usr folder...

Quick question can I delete the file called aquafix??


Anyways thanks again for you time, patience, the mac community is clearly an invaluable resource.. you are all wonderfull.

Congrats Emersive! I know thats gotta feel good - nothing like having to start from scratch or near scratch. Glad it worked out.

If you are done trying themes - then by all means delete the aquafix stuff - if not leave it around for while.
