OSX 10.5.6 questions



Having got Sheepshaver to work, I've gone from 10.4.11 to 10.5.6 using
Archive & Install.

First question: all applications seem to be working as they should,
preferences intact, so can I safely erase 'Previous Systems' or might there
be essential invisible items hiding there?

Second question: I repaired permissions before and after the installation,
but Disk Utility continues to report a host of damaged permissions ("ACL
found but not expected..."). I see from articles in Apple Support and Forums
that this is benign and should be ignored, but Disk Utility is taking about
45 minutes to verify permissions! I wonder if these ACL violations refer to
applications lingering in Previous Systems and erasing this folder might
speed up the verification. If not, is there a method of persuading Disk
utility to ignore ACL warnings?
