I've carried over several partitions that I have changed OS X use of
several times: other partitions originally used by Panther 10.3.9 and
now used by Leopard ...10.5.5, 10.5.6, back to 10.5.4. All on a
Quicksilver 2002 Dual 1GHz Native G4.
I have used different computer user names ... originally using
"billconnelly" now using "moonstoneartstudio". Recently ended up with
"moonstoneartstudiospowermacg4" before going back to
"moonstoneartstudio".
What might I do to consolidate my setup, on the Other Partitions, so
no Ownership and/or Permissions issues crop up?
For example, I recently changed my Desktop Background from images on
the Leopard partition, to those from my DOCS partition, and on
Startup today, it chose a blue Background in lieu of my pictures from
DOCS. I think it's because it couldn't open the partition in time to
setup the Desktop (???).
I've been "warned" that OS X may function better if I keep all my
APPS and DOCS along with the OS, but I haven't taken the plunge yet;
and, probably won't. I still prefer partitioning:
OS X Leopard ("moonstoneartstudio")
OS X Panther 10.3.9 ("billconnelly")
Classic 9.2.2
APPS
DOCS
Bad Boy? or Don't Worry, Be Happy?
