Reeanble "Your startup disk is almost full" warning

I have by accident disabled "Your startup disk is almost full" warning and I would like to reenable it. How can I do that?

I have this in my log:

tid 00000001 display lowdiskwarning: warning for volume 'Macintosh HD' removed

Where is this information stored?

Mac OS X (10.5.8)

Welcome to Apple Discussions,

I don't know where that info is stored, but the warning MAY reset itself automatically after enough space has been freed up - apparently it did so in OS X 10.3. Read the first and the last post in this old outside thread:

Here's Freeing Up Space in case you need it.

Thanks, but I do not have really problems with disk space. Free space just fluctuated. That is why I would like to be warned about that again in the future.

True. After disk again filled up the warning was back. So it is really just temporary when you check that option.
