Hi
No Adobe CS products will install on a case sensitive file system.
What I did is create a sparsebundle image where I've put the Photoshop
application, and I mount that partition prior to starting Photoshop.
No other easy way around it, unless you disable case sensitivity.

Should also mention that not only it won't install on a case sensitive
file system, but it will also not run. Though that part only you can
get around by creating symlinks, but it's such an hassle that I found
the sparsebundle option much easier

I was going to say you can obviously get around that problem by creating a ZFS dataset which has casesensitivity set to sensitive, or perhaps mixed. Presumably that works on the old zfs version here?
(You'd still have to copy the installation across from HFS+... Stupid Adobe.)

Case sensitive filesystems were introduced in onnv_77 which is what I'm merging with at the moment. However even once the module is usable the case sensitivity is going to require some more testing before it's ready.

I think the UTF-8 normalization stuff might be important too, as OS X uses a slightly unusual form for historical reasons and might subtly freak out if a filesystem did something different. Maybe that's in onnv_77 as well.

if you carefully read the message before, he said:
"Case sensitive filesystems were introduced in onnv_77 which is what

so I'm assuming that merge isn't finished yet, and as such, there is
no case sensitive option yet
