New YESS!
Needless to say, I'm now (finally) running 10.1.1.

After such an exercise in frustration, they should invent a frustration category for the next Olympics. I'd surely be a winner.

Thanks to either a dodgy ISP or dodgy 'phone infrastrructure, I finally managed to use Software Update to redownload 10.1.1.

And that's all I needed to do. I did move the existing bits of 10.1.1 package from the /library/receipts directory first.

Anyway, it's hip, it's happening, it's groovy, and stuff.

So now I get to look forward to 30-odd MB of 10.1.2 in a few days. Hmm. Think I'll go visit a friend who has broadband :)

Thanks again for your assistance Mr Sinclair!

New Upgrade Frenzy
So 10.1.1 goes in like a dream (no longer a nightmare), and iTunes 2.0.3 arrives at the same time. Sure enough that installed without any bother. I now have 15MB worth of DVD update ready and waiting for me to download.

So, by the time I OS 10.1.2 comes out, that 30MB should just about take me over my 100MB limit from my ISP for the month. Fab. Still, not long 'ti next month, is it?

Rest assured I will check my disk space before downloading another OS update - and banish all those MP3s to another machine as required.

Research conducted at the University of Oxford has proven conclusively that a cat on a table will inevitably push anything on it off the edge and onto the floor.

“The only obvious conclusion that we have been able to come to is that the Earth must be ball shaped, or cats would have pushed everything off the edge by now.”
