I downloaded the 10.2.8 combined update and burned it to CD, and have
used it several times successfully. (I got tired of the download time
involved in trying to use the 'automatic update' method.)
Is it faster? I wonder why?
Which brings me to an issue I have. I don't think I quite like this
software updater where everything is suppose to happen auto. Recent
case, I said yes to yet another Tiger OS update and I was given 2
choices after it came down: restart now or shut down!!!! I am still
miffed about this. Is the process so alzeimic that it can't let one
continue (especially on dial up) and it does its new refurbishing nex
time there is a startup? It then froze or so I thought? Sort of just
blue lit screen with X logo thingy not moving at all for at least 10
mins so I pulled plug. Restarted it and things seemed normal again...
Where is the update (obtained auto thru the updater?) if you ever
need it later to rebuild the OS from the original Tiger disk? I
realise it gets complicated because there is update after update and
you will need them all... Is there some rational way to do all this
and keep "them"? Or should one keep (of course) the original Tiger
DVD and just download the latest update when you need to re-establish
the OS?
