I  cloned my good 10.3.3 system to another drive in my Beige.  It copied
everything but the user directory that I didn't understand and put up a window
that said why, but I didn't understand it. 

When booting from the newly cloned system I got a user and password box but my
old password didn't work.  I booted from an install disk but it didn't recognize
the new system though it did see two other X sytems on my machine (the original
Panther and an old Jaguar.)  I guess because there's no user directory.

So what do I do?  I'll try to move the user directory again with CCC.  If that
doesn't work can I just copy the user directory over in 9?  Reinstall over the
cloned system would be an extreme and inconvenient sololution.

And why does this happen?  I just installed the latest security update.  Is this
some kind of annoying result?

Any help is appreciated as always.
