[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1193853, member: 24160"] Yep, backup is an almost must do before upgrading the OS. ex. When I upgraded to 10.6, I had a 3rd party driver that was not compatible and caused a kernel panic on boot. Could not get into 10.6 at all after the upgrade. No problem though. Booted to my 10.5 backup, browsed the crash log, found the offending file, moved it out of the system folder, booted into 10.6. Took all of about 5 minutes thanks to that bootable backup. [/QUOTE]
