newbmac Posted June 27, 2008 Share Posted June 27, 2008 Re-posting in this forum as the install forum I think was the incorrect place given mostly newbs in the install forum (http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=112742&st=0&gopid=798761entry798761) Given that version upgrades frequently break an install, what strategies are people using to mitigate this fact? For example, are you guys placing your USER's HOME folder on a separate non-OS drive? This way you can just erase the OS drive and reinstall from scratch in case the system tanks after a new 10.5.x upgrade. Or, is it just taking backups using time machine or carbon copy cloner? Just looking to learn from others experiences and strategies.
