Use the install CD
Authored by: pedacter on Feb 25, '02 07:32:50PM

I had this problem occur with my 10.1.2 upgrade. The solution however is rather easy. If you boot off -any- full system install disk 10.0 or 10.1 the installer will down-grade the system to a working base install. But you don't lose system settings amazingly. Then it's just a matter of sitting through all the &*$(##)@ updates. (Why can't they do jump updates? Why with to get to 10.1.3 should I have to install the IE update? can't they bundle all the changes???) But in any case, it's gentler on the system than a full reinstall.
