Okay I updated to leopard no problems on 2 of my machines. this last one (intel imac) has been a disaster.

Somehow I upgrded and have a new user account setup and cannot get back to my origianl user account with all my files/settings. I try to logout and select my old user, but it's not an option to choose. I have a complete SD backup on external firewire that I did this morning and am booting from it now.

What is the best way to get at my user settings in Leopard? Migration assistant says I do not have enough intrnal hard drive space.

Restore from SD?

Clean install Leopard and migrate from the backup?

That's what I'm doing now.

I'll keep you posted. I'm nervous.

clean install and then migration worked fine...actually much faster now (drive access eetc)
