screwing about
coming at ya from in teh Leopard!
pictures backed-up. disconnecting ExtHD, and introducing Double Adaptor.
hmm…. twitter is borked - maybe this is a good omen?
removed language support, and started an erase+install…
10 more minutes to finish double-backup of my photos. So tempted to start install anyways.. but i KNOW how that would end
I JUST CLICKED THE ICON LABELLED ‘INSTALL”!!!!!111111one!!11!!!! eleven!!!11
so now I have a double-adaptor so I can power the MBP, the PowerBook (my support line) and the ExtHD….
pre-install - preparing a second copy of pictures - really don’t trust my freebie backup drive to stay true
pre-install - now backing up pictures to the powerbook also. I don’t trust the freebie backup drive to keep working….
…but i did trust the powerbook to work off the mains for >5 minutes… whoops..
jeez i hope it works..
But to plug in the double adaptor, I need to unplug the HD…. Oh how I yearn for the old-style triangular double-adaptors…
looks more like Twitterific is borked than twitter… interesting…
yes, @gonty - i am a bit of an ebb’er and flow’er
Leopard Install - 7 minutes remaining…..
a big green tick means success. rebooting…
up and running - time to import user data….
Checking Installation DVD consistency - 13% complete. Looks like I’ll be finishing this install after Mum’s Birthday Thing.
64% of that way into DVD Consistency Check I noticed the ‘Skip’ button… SKIPPED!!!
trying not to think of an excuse to eat the delicious danish that is waiting in the kitchen - it must be saved…
