I want to clarify that the 9.2.1 CD included in the 10.1 upgrade package will only update Classic system 9.1 or later. This shouldn't be an issue if you've been using the standard Mac OS X install packages. But if you wanted to use the 9.2.1 CD to update other Macs at home, remember that they have to be 9.1 or later.

  Derrick,
  
  I used your Disaster-Free articles to install 10.1 on my Pismo. a few problems I encountered were:
  
  1) getting DVD to run on my Pismo (Firewire PowerBook). DVD worked fine until I upgraded 9.1-Classic to 9.2.1--then the dreaded "Not configured error"--my fix was to reinstall OS-X-10.1. Runs fine now.
  
  2) I recommend each time you install 9.2.1 or your backed up 9.1 System--restart from each OS-9 System after each installation to handle the networking and queries. I apparently crashed a couple OSX-10.1installations because I didn't .
  
  3) Took me 4 installs to get OSX-10.1 to work great. Yup, I learn best from FUs.
  
  Thanx again for the fine "Disaster-Free" articles.

  P.S. AOL 16B Beta works great undr 10.1.
