Mac OS X 10.4.7

Category : Technology/10dot4dot7Problem.txt

I updated my Intel iMac and my iBook to 10.4.7 with no problems, via Software Update. But when I upgraded my server, a PPC-based Mac Mini, the installation aborted half-way, leaving me with a Finder that looked like this when the Mac Mini restarted :

Yikes! I downloaded the Combo updater and did the upgrade again this afternoon when things were relatively quiet. This time, though, all went well.

All the mail server, DNS, PHP, and MySQL stuff still work. So I think it's OK to upgrade, in case you're wondering.
