Panther approaches...
How are people planning on installing Panther? Clean or Update?
Panther approaches...
I beta tested Panther and Archive & Install, preserving Users and network settings, was the most common installation process used by the testers.
Panther approaches...
Clean install
Panther approaches...
got my delivery last night(only took 1 day in shipping, not 2;-) & did a clean/archive install, preserving users and network settings, on my 366mHz/576mB/10gB grape clamshell...it went smoothly, even preserved my home dir ln to another (os9)partition:-)
oh, 1 thing...
i did notice was that multiple nfs mounts on the same server (such as nfs://myLinuxBox/home & nfs://myLinuxBox/bigDisk) are now labeled "home" & "bigDisk", not myLinuxBox & myLinuxBox-1:-)
Panther approaches...
Archive & install, just because I don't want to spend 8 hours re-installing all my apps....
Macromedia suite, Office suite, Adobe suite... etc It just takes so long I don't think it would be worth it. Does anyone here know of any (validated) reasons to do a clean install? ---

Not sure what you consider validated, but just to share my experience using 7B85 (the last build). Doing an upgrade install hooped some of the preferences in my home directory. A bunch of applications were acting funny after the upgrade. Re-creating the user directory fixed the majority of the problems, but to this day, I still can't print on either the office or home printer. It gives me an "empty print file" error. |
