Check your memory. 10.4 is pickier than 10.3. Download and install Applejack with memtest, and let it go. replace any questionable dimms. Have you tried a different Tiger installer disk or a different drive? I just remembered once having a similar problem updating a similar system to 10.4; it turned out to be the flaky external dvd drive I was using to install it. On mine it would go through the install just fine, but then it would barf on the reboot. Since 10.3 is on CD's you might have a drive with the dvd part that is failing, or the tiger DVD itself is bad. -- Bruce Johnson "Wherever you go, there you are" B.
