Hi Ronni Sorry to bother you again. I have now located my Snow Leopard installation DVD. Apart from Repair Permissions is there anything else I would need to do before upgrading my friend’s iMac to OSX 10.6?
I remember the process being very straight forward when I upgraded my MacBook to Snow Leopard. Not sure, but think given my MacBook is a 2006 model, it would have been Tiger to Snow Leopard. I am assuming Leopard to Snow Leopard would be just as straight forward.
