Re: Mac OS X 10.3 install issues
i'm using a 17 powerbook, no install problems, but.you have to get a lot of updates panther renders a lot of !osx! software useless if you don't update..James On 09/02/2004, at 14:08, Mark Secker wrote: Has anybody noticed that running the OSX 10.3 installer causes an irrecoverable error unless you remove certain items (i-sync, iCal, iMovie etc) from the install list (using custom install)? also I noticed that removing Asian language support and fonts in the custom install list doesn't seem to stop them from being installed (or at least it doesn't stop the installer doing an installing Asian Language support progress bar)? -- ~ Mark Secker Computer Support Officer ph#6488 1855 (ECEL) mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] University of Western Australia - CRICOS Provider No. 00126G ~ present day present time http://ecel-mark.ecel.uwa.edu.au/~marksecker/index.htm (sometimes works) -- The WA Macintosh User Group Mailing List -- Archives - http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/archives.shtml Guidelines - http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/guidelines.shtml Unsubscribe - mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] WAMUG is powered by Stalker CommuniGatePro
Mac OS X 10.3 install issues
Has anybody noticed that running the OSX 10.3 installer causes an irrecoverable error unless you remove certain items (i-sync, iCal, iMovie etc) from the install list (using custom install)? also I noticed that removing Asian language support and fonts in the custom install list doesn't seem to stop them from being installed (or at least it doesn't stop the installer doing an installing Asian Language support progress bar)? -- ~ Mark Secker Computer Support Officer ph#6488 1855 (ECEL) mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] University of Western Australia - CRICOS Provider No. 00126G ~ present day present time http://ecel-mark.ecel.uwa.edu.au/~marksecker/index.htm (sometimes works)
RE: Mac OS X 10.3 install issues
Hmm, 'haven't experienced that Mark (I've installed OS X on 266 mhz iMacs all the way through to eMacs and G4 / G5 Towers). The only time I received an irrecoverable error during an OS install was during a clamshell 'graphite' iBook job ... turned out to be a hard disk issue with the OS installation (tried OS 9 and X). Why do I suspect it had something to do with the OS? I've been using the hard disk from the iBook in a 2.5 firewire enclosure for two months without a hitch.
