Hello... I am faced with the prospect of a mammoth erase and re-install on my G4 Powerbook (three years old) to attempt to sort out an issue with CD burning and as a general housekeeping manouver. My question related to two kinds of updates:
As supplied, I have 10.4.2 on the Mac install disc. I have kept the machine up to date and installed all the intermediate updates and it is currently 10.4.11. Do I need to go through this all again or can I simply update the original installation version with the final update? Will everything in between be included on that last update? The same goes for the security updates.... Also, I have a couple of programmes like Toast, where I have say 6.0.1 as an original disk and have to go through all the successive updates once the original is installed. Is there a way of "fooling" the mac to think that the original is installed and simply install the update, which as far as I can see is probably a fully functional version in itself? Can I also get rid of the earlier versions which seem to sit on the hard disc and take up space once superceded?
