In the past, when I move to a new MAc I just copy the drive partitions from the 
old machine to the new machine.  It has mostly worked fine.

This time moving from a MBP (late 2007?) to a new i7 MBP I did the same but the 
new machine would boot past loading Extensions.mkext.

Old MBP was running latest OS (SL 10.6.3).  I tried deleting the kext cache 
directory etc.  I also reset System Controller and PRAM - no help. .    

Any idea why this my be so?

Only thing I can think of is a) i7 was running later build of SL and I should 
have waited for 10.6.4, or b) Little Snitch kext causing problem. 

I did restore smaller partitions to larger new ones but I think I have done 
that before without a problem.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Cheers,
Ashley.

PS I don't use the Migration Assistant because I have multiple partitions and 
don't store all my a files in my hone directory etc.
