Mac OSX 10.4.6 to 10.4.7 Server

[nastyhome]

Hi all,

 

I have Mac OS X 10.4.6 installed and I want to install 10.4.7 Server onto it.

 

I have the mac_os_x_server_v10.4.7_universal_build_8k1079 DMG file and the S.N.

 

I also have the JaS.10.4.7.Update.(Intel).zip (10.4.6 to 10.4.7 intel update) - computer is intel.

 

Questions are:

 

Do I update 10.4.6 to 10.4.7 first then install 10.4.7 Server?

 

Or do I just install 10.4.7 Server over my existing 10.4.6?

 

Another question is:

 

How to install 10.4.7 Server?

 

Thanks.

dw!

 

i got it

 

i have 10.4.6

 

updated 10.4.6 to 10.4.7 using JAS 10.4.7 intel update

 

then convert the DMG image of 10.4.7 server into read/write

 

and when thats done, opened it and removed VolumeCheck file out of it.

 

then opened up the Server install package and the way I go install the Mac OSX Server with SN and all.

 

Mad

 

10.4.7 Server here i come!

I'm building a MAC Pro system with Dual Quad Core Xeon base on TYAN Motherboard. All are ok with Mac OS X 10.4.8 Intel AMD SSE3. Could I upgrade to 10.4.7 Server?

u can backup your OSX now and give it a go with installing the server packages.

 

Thats your best bet.

 

I backup my OS X on another partition using Acronis Disk Director Server on my Windows Server 2003.

 

It takes 10 mins to restore my OS X backup copy into the partition without playing around with creating a partition and setting it to active mode and all that...

 

Always have a backup in hand!
