another day, another problem.

A few minutes ago the updater came up with a security fix and some common stuff like a RAW-Update for Aperture and an update for Timemachine.

I thought it couldn't be wrong to install those updates and so i did. My machine restarted, the bootloader came up and that's it. Whenever i try to start Leopard my computer seems to be in a restart-loop. I only have the 10 seconds the bootloader waits for input and right after that my machine restarts again.

Anyone else with problems like that? I don't really know what to do since i'm still a Leo-Noob. Luckily i had another copy of Leopard on a spare HDD.

Cheers,
Tom

Cheers,
