Lynne:
Have you determined whether or not the Mac Mini server can be accessed via
voiceover without a monitor? If not, how have you connected the monitor.
My server should be here shortly and I am wondering if I should get a HDMI
enabled monitor.
Cheers.

Hello everybody
OK, Gordon is working on the Mac Mini server and I thought I'd share some
issues with you if you're thinking of going that route.
Firstly, as you know, Lion server comes as is, with no DVD. This presents
a problem for us; as we use case sensitive format and that's important to
us. Problems; There is no way to re-format the HD because there is no
external DVD to boot from. Apple has apparently made it so that you cannot
downgrade the server to Snow Leopard. It refuses to boot from any SL DVD.
A message comes up saying "This OS is too old. You must run OS 10.7 Lion."
Therefore, the only way we can think of is to use our own Lion DVD and
hope that that works. But beware if you have the hardware and don't want
the Server version of the OS. It's a real swine to downgrade as
authorisation is required before you can even install.
