OK
The picture thing is actually in the create your account section. The OSX that I am installing is 10.3. How do I access the Migration Assistant? I can't get to anything on the ibook until I get past the user account deal. So will I have to do that in target Disc and run the Migration Assistant from my Mac Mini?
