Try removing the extra memory and the mouse and try booting. See what
happens. If it boots OK a few times, then plug back the mouse and
try again.

Thanks Laurent. It's 10.3.9, I put 10.3.0 in the earlier email.
Still have the Newton?
Can anyone who has done an archive and install share what exactly
it does, and how well it does it? :)
I have done it dozens of times, upgrading systems. I've only ever had
this fail twice (both recently for some reason) and in neither case
did I lose any data. In both of these cases I suspect underlying
hardware issues: one of the systems was displaying a lot of problems
before I tried this.
What happens in an A&R is that the installer moves the System folder,
Apple-installed applications, the Library folder and all the unix
underpinings to a new folder called previous systems.
Then a new system is installed, the existing user database from
netinfo is added to the system, and voila, new system, same old users.
