Hi Geoff,
open Eclipse application package. Control click on Eclipse.app -> show
package contents.
Open the file Contents/info.plist with TextEdit.
In the file is a line nearly like this "-consoleLog -os macosx -ws
carbon" add "-data /Volumes/Users/workspace" to it. There is no need to
call the workspace workspace. Any valid folder is okay . Eclipse
creates a .metadata folder in it.
