A fix for startup stalls after Software Update restarts
Authored by: marius63 on Mar 20, '08 04:58:44AM

Had the same problem (STPOD after update), but this fix (automount) did not solved it. Had to reinstall the OS from the original disks. Then I did the software update and this time it worked! The STPOD appeared again, but I let it spin. It went on for several minutes until normal function. Maybe on the first time I got impatient and reset the computer. So just in case my advice is: let the STPOD spin for many minutes after an update before you do anything.
