Wow, what a battle!
I was tired of my G5 being so badly misconfigured that I couldn’t even install a new printer, so I completely erased the HD and started over. That was drastic medicine, but I’m hoping that it will be the right answer in the long run.
Of course, in the short run, I have had a full day of terror, getting things back together, and I’m not even close to being done with that. I did manage to get the blog live again though, as evinced by this post. I’ll check in again once I’m “done”. In the mean time, if you are looking for something on our site and you can’t find it, be patient, it will show up eventually.
