I am trying to update a 1.25 GHz MDD (single G4) from a clean install of 10.5 to 10.5.8. Perhaps naively, I let Software Update do its thing and after a couple hours of downloading through our slow DSL connection, things were chugging along.
I should note that Software Update was performing five updates total, including the Mac OSX Combo 10.5.8 update. Last night the machine was sitting with a solid light blue screen with a message box in the center showing almost no progress on the progress bar and a caption reading, "Configuring Installation" and this morning it appears to be in exactly the same state. I can't seem to bring up the Activity Monitor (or whatever it's called) with a cmd-opt-esc and there are no menus nor buttons on the screen. However, I'm hesitant to shut down with the power button.
