Ha! my problem was somewhat different. when installing updater 3 from the console, the system freezes up and after a power down reboot, the OS will not load to the point of the login screen, requiring the repair disks and recovery console, manually removing all CFMX stuff, and starting over.
But I doubt all is lost at this point, because I am receiving phone calls and email from some folks at MM to assist, and perhaps by this time next week, I will be a happy camper again. At least I don't have to call the other side of the planet, like Michael does. The other bad news was that the Spurs lost game 2 to the Knicks. ====================================== Stop spam on your domain, use our gateway!
