But for future reference: is there a problem with CDs being an older
version than the installed, updated version, or does that problem not apply
to Archive and Reinstall?
No. This is exactly what that option is for.
It doesn't apply, although any programs that require a higher lever of OS won't work. (IE: some programs requiring, for instance 10.3.4 or better won't work. Also it doesn't transfer system preference panes or plug-ins.
Archive&Reinstall is the equivalent of the old OS 9 'Clean Install'.
Typically though, I do an A&R followed by applying the latest combo update, so it doesn't really matter.
