(Updated) Short Semi-Haitus While I Finish My OS X Panther Install
Note: This post has been updated. Any and all updates appear at the end of the original post.
Still here. There's a short list of items I need to post. But, having managed to get Mac OS X Panther installed (not without some difficulty with Install Disk 2, which apparently is a common bug), I'm now slowly going through all of my backed-up data, category by category, one piece at a time, verifying that each backed-up whatever is being restored properly.
So I'll be in-and-out for a couple of days as I get my system slowly back to normal condition, hopefully without munging anything too terribly (which is why I'm taking my time on the restoration portion).
Update
One unfortunate development is that I seem to have lost Palatino during the upgrade. Although I backed up everywhere I had fonts installed under Jaguar, and brought them all back in after installing Panther, I seem to have lost Palatino. Which is annoying because it's the first choice in the font list for the code which renders this site, and now I don't have it so I get the second choice in the font list instead. For the life of me, I can't think of where I would have gotten Palatino before that I don't have it now.
