aleigh Posted February 18, 2003 Report Share Posted February 18, 2003 I was about to install Jaguar (I have 10.2.1 disks) on my G4 Quicksilver -- and was hoping to gleem from this board whether or not it was safe to go to 10.2.3 or 10.2.4. Obviously, the one thing I can't do without is a backup system - So I'd rather stay with 10.2.1 if Retro may not work properly. Has anyone been successful backing up/restore with Retro to firewire devices on 10.23 or 10.2.4 Should it matter my primary backup devices are: An Ecrix VXA-1 tape drive (firewire interface) LaCie d2 Firewire Hard drive. Iomega Peerless Drive (Firewire/usb) thanks in advance, xandra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havoc Posted February 18, 2003 Report Share Posted February 18, 2003 I have a problem now where one machine crashes the backup and that machine happens to be mine which was just upgraded to 10.2.4 this weekend! See my earlier post: http://forums.dantz.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=Desktopworkgrupx&Number=20997&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1 I have removed my notebook from the backup server and everything is running fine on it again so I'm not going to upgrade any more users to 10.2.4 until I know that pushing the os of the backup server to 10.2.4 is safe and will still be able to backup clients on all other versions of OS X from 10.1.4 up.

aleigh Posted February 18, 2003 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2003 Although I don't know if it matters, I should mention that my question refers to Retro Desktop, not the server edition. Just an Aside... I've found Desktop 5 complicated enough -- until I have more confidence in Retro 5 under OSX - I'm holding off on the server edition as it seems to have issues of its own.
