Thanks for the prompt response.
Presuming I can find my
Tiger install DVD or a hopefully bootable backup [which, if you saw my apartment, you would consider improbable
], can I install 10.4.x, where x < 8, over 10.4.8?
However I reinstall
Tiger, would this installation solve the problem of the missing
block 1, which I presume is what might be called the
boot block? Is it possible to alter or replace that block manually or using some utility (while operating as root from another boot disk, of course)?
