OS X update: double restart? - space-time - 01-01-2007
I just nuked and paved my wife's iBook with OEM 10.4.4 (I think) and then I let Software Update download all the updates (OS X whatever latest version is, a bunch of Java, iApps, etc). After restart, the iBook was booting up and suddenly it restarted by ITSELF, is that supposed to happen? I have never seen this before in OS X.
Thanks

Damn!
I should have copyrighted "Nuked and Paved", I'd be a quadtrillionaire by now!

I was using the term since the 1970's on the Navy's RDM (Rotating Disc Memory) units. Think of ten whole megabytes in a unit the size of a refrigerator.

Think of the double restart as two cherries on top of your update sundae.

technically, it's called a scrape.
