I had the "Application Not Found ..." error and I thought it was
because I had deleted a copy of an application from my hard disk
and then placed a new copy on my hard disk.  Rebuilding the desktop
with cmd-option on reboot didn't work, but booting from another
disk and DELETING the desktop (with a DA or resedit) from the offending
disk solved the problem.  The desktop gets rebuilt from scratch
and everything's OK.  This may be a bug in system 6.0.
