i've been using apple's filevault on mac os x 10.4 for a while now, but i've noticed in the last several months that space is not actually reclaimed after i delete files, even when i tell filevault to reclaim it (it asks on logout). so i found the command-line equivalents and got back 40% of my hard disk this morning.

to do this you must have access to an admin account and either it must be a different account from the one with the filevault in question, or you must enable the text-input feature on the login screen. to get started, log out of your session and type the special >console username to get a text-based login. log into your admin account on the text console and run the following commands. i'll assume the account with the filevault is called user. the usual disclaimers apply — it worked for me, but always back up everything before touching a filesystem repair tool!

first, repair any damage to the image. enter passwords as prompted and note where the Apple_HFS device is; i assume /dev/disk1s2.

$ sudo hdiutil attach -nomount -stdinpass ~user/user.sparseimage
$ sudo fsck_hfs -yf /dev/disk1s2
$ sudo hdiutil detach /dev/disk1s2

second, compact the image to reclaim unused space.

$ sudo hdiutil compact -stdinpass ~user/user.sparseimage

log out, cross fingers, and log in normally as user.

Implementation Notes:

This implementation of UTF-8B produces no errors on decoding, but
produces encoding errors for Unicode characters that cannot be
round-tripped successfully. The supported Unicode range is the UTF-16
range:

    U+0000 ... U+D7FF
and U+E000 ... U+10FFFF

Trying new restaurants is always somewhat hit-or-miss. Here are two rebbyribs and I have tried recently:

This vegan soul food and seafood restaurant is quick and the food is delicious. The BBQ sandwich had the most convincing texture I’ve gnawed on since I stopped eating meat. The real surprises, though, were the side dishes: the rice with seaweed was tasty and filling, and the slaw (rebbyribs’s choice) was excellent with the included tahini-based dressing. This place was a perfect lunch after a several-mile bike ride along the bay trail. Only real downsides when we were there: too much ketchup, and lack of some menu items, including the house special ginger drink. I look forward to returning to try the un-fish and un-chicken.

For several years I frequented this franchise’s downtown Mountain View location, which has the advantage of being quick, affordable, and near the Caltrain station. Unfortunately the other locations I’ve tried (Cupertino, Berkeley and Millbrae) are all far inferior. The Millbrae location was the biggest disappointment, since it’s in a great location about ten minutes from the BART/Caltrain station on foot (two blocks west, on the far side of El Camino Real.) The service is slow, the more attractive food items (and the cashier-suggested substitutes!) were all out of stock, and there’s pre-added sugar in every drink. Worse, the pearls in the milk tea tend to be incompletely rehydrated and are sometimes even still crunchy at the center. A simple tea and spring rolls order can easily take 25 minutes and then turn into tea and onion rings when they discover that they’re out of spring rolls. I won’t be going back.
