- OK, ealier I reported how my 2.2->3.0 upgrade seemed to run the
- first 99.99% without problems, then said "running postprocessing
- script..." and went into hyperspace. I tried a few things to kill it
- and then rebooted the system.
-
- It was suggested that I run the Update application again and let
- it tidy up whatever loose ends might have been left. I did this and
- the install went looping off into eternity once again. (Actually,
- twice. I _am_ thorough.)
-
- This time, however, I discovered the Workspace Console tool. It
- said...
-
- Software Version 3.0 (Hyper3B)
- Disk Label: NeXTSTEP_3.0

- Disk Capacity 659MB, Device Block 2048 bytes
-
- Disk is Write Protected

- Dec 17 14:24:44 malahat syslog: netinfo failure, sleeping
-
- It looks like the netinfo failure is what the script is
- encountering and I'm a bit confused. My machine is configured as a
- simple network installation. I'm not part of a netinfo network.
-
- Can you please suggest what I should do now? (As I mentioned
- earlier, 3.0 _appears_ to be running properly, but I hate loose
- ends...)
