I've had an iMac for a few years and this past christmas I got a Macbook. I used migration assistant to setup my macbook but since then have rarely used my iMac. I decided to get my iMac up to date with my macbook using migration assistant again but it duplicated users so I had 2 users with my name 2 with my wife's etc. So I thought I'd be smart and just booted from the original software disc (OSX 10.4) that came with my iMac and deleted everything. The problem is this, Setup assistant on the iMac has only options for firewire but I have the macbook w/o a firewire port. I started a user on the iMac and updated the software but migration asst. still has no option other than firewire. Any help would be much appreciated.

Sorry if this should be in the software forum.

Disregard this question.

But if anyone ever encounters this just upgrade to 10.6, it gives the over network option.
