I did a complete reformat and reinstall as this machine is, at the moment, not being used by anyone. Don't know how the upgrade install would work although I've seen some posts around that they upgrade install worked just fine. If you choose to do the upgrade install, I would definitely run Disk Utility and repair the drive and permissions prior to upgrading. Also, obviously, make a complete backup prior (I backed up my Pismo on two different drives prior to upgrading to Panther but I also did a reformat and clean install on that machine).

I can't really offer anything in the way of help to you, but can I ask if you did a clean install (either reformat or archive install) or an upgrade? I'm going to be putting Panther on my Lombard 333MHz machine this weekend, and it's currently suffering as a victim of 10.2.8.
I'd like to just upgrade and keep everything how it is, but I'll clean install if necesssary. Either way, I'll pay close attention to what CPU speed is claimed afterwards.
