Hard drive greyed out when browsing for folder?

Hi all,

I have an issue where when I use SA to change a website folder path and I click the button at the end of that field (...) the Server HD is greyed out. This makes it impossible for me to browse to find my site folder and have to type the path by hand. Has anyone got any ideas. Have tried the obvious perms checks and repairs with no joy. Have also tried ACL's.

Ok don't worry I have fixed it myself.

In /Volumes there were two volumes for my HD eg :

My volume called "Xserve01" was in there but so was "Xserve01 1"

cd into Xserve01 - nothing. cd into Xserve01 1 - there were files. What did I do....

rm -R Xserve01

mv Xserve01\ 1 Xserve01

ls in Volumes then only showed Xserve01. cd into Xserve01 and files were there. Checked in SA and all was well again.
