Hi Glenn. I think you'll do better to run DU to repair permissions from your start up disk rather than off the CD. You want permissions to be linked to the environment in which you'll be using the computer. John

OK, so modify this to running Disk Utility off 10.3 install CD, which you'll be booted off of anyhow because of pending install. Good point. Also, I know that it says you can repair permissions while booted off hard drive, but as an old time Mac user I always default to running off a CD for this type thing... Old habits are hard to break... ;)

1) Before updating, boot the 10.2 CD (Install/Upgrade Disk #1) and run disk permission repair (not verify).

Permissions repair can be run on the booted drive, no need to boot from the CD for this.
