Re: 10.6.4


[re: billford] [link to this post]
 
Archive and Install (I think it is called something new under SL) is fine - you just end up with an "Old System" folder, a bit like the OS9 Clean Install.

So long as you have the SL install disk it should be fine and pretty safe. Other than possible firmware issues, I wonder if its version confusion could also break the "save user settings" option.

Also of course the old Safe Mode, fsck is worth a try.

641.1 meg here. One item only. - Just about to load it now via my Be* w/l.

Here's hoping it goes smoothly. crazy

Edited: Took 5 minutes to load, then it installed. Requires a restart. All's well so far!

Yup. I upgraded my main machine the other day as I had to for the iOS 4 GM install.

Luckily my air has hardly any music on it so the rebuild took seconds smile

I've got very little on the MacBook, but there's over 3,000 tracks on the iMac crazy

Wasn't too bad, took less than ten minutes.
