| First,
Thanks for the replys.
Friday night I went to the local Apple store in SOHO (giving them a plug) and one of the people there was familar with the problem.
They refer to the icon as the ghostbusters sign.
The technician suggested that it means that some files were not properly installed. He suggested I do and 'Archive install' saving the settings and reinstalling.
I did the archive install of 10.2.2 which of course balked since I had also previously installed 10.2.3. I continued with the 10.2.2 install and everything was fine.
There was a warning that Classic was now unsupported in my current configuration (10.2.2. reinstalled over 10.2.3) but despite that everything seems to now be working.
So, I strongly suspect that the culprit may have been 10.2.3. At this point I think I will let things stay as they are for a while before installing any more apple releases.
Once again,
Thanks, |
