Could also be bad system RAM though. -- Send responses to the relevant news group rather than email to me. E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my very hungry SPAM filter.

Could also be bad system RAM though. Yep, and removing a 1 GB DIMM, leaving only the 256 MB onboard RAM, and getting increased kernel panics appears to point that way. Not that the distinction matters practically, since either way the motherboard is shot. -- My latest dance performance <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_9pudbFisE> Mac and geek T-shirts & gifts <http://designsbymike.net/shop/mac.cgi> Prius shirts/bumper stickers <http://designsbymike.net/shop/prius.cgi>

If only the screen goes out, you can still start up in target disk mode to run the migration app. Also, you can always remove the HD and mount it in an external case. Dismantling an iBook isn't easy, but if there's no concern about having to reassemble it, it's not so bad. Oh, and aren't you making a clone backup of it? If not, you should be and certainly you should be NOW. Anyway, you can use the backup with Migration Assistant. -- My latest dance performance <http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_9pudbFisE> Mac and geek T-shirts & gifts <http://designsbymike.net/shop/mac.cgi> Prius shirts/bumper stickers <http://designsbymike.net/shop/prius.cgi>
