10.5: How to reset Leopard back to the Setup Assistant
I was wondering if anyone has used this successfully in Lion. I've been using this for a few years now with great success but it looks like they changed the location or name of com.apple.DirectoryServices.plist from the command /bin/launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.DirectoryServices.plist & . Anyone know how to proceed from here?

THESE WILL PROBABLY TRASH YOUR SYSTEM, SO IF YOU SEE THEM RECOMMENDED, DON'T DO THEM:
Apple's Knowledge Base entry for using DSCL in Single User Mode under Lion:http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4749 Note: When running dscl(1) from Single User mode, you'll see this message:
This message can be safely ignored.

Thanks for the reply! I noticed the dscl error and kinda freaked out a bit. I've been doing basically the same process through the gui with decent results but it's way more time consuming. You are correct about deleting /Library/Preferences though, it seems the keyboard maps are in there now because if you delete it the setup assistant doesn't progress past that section. Thanks again |
