I have a personal white macbook with 320 GB drive, which I use for both home and work.
My workplace has just bought me a new white macbook with a 120 GB drive to use at work.
So I used migration assistant to transfer my account and apps to my brand new work macbook. My home folder is about 200GB, but everything else, apps etc is about 30GB so I clicked migrate everything except the home folder. (I plan to transfer my work materials separately.)
Doesn't work. Is the home folder compulsory?
Also I had 15GB of Bootcamp on the personal macbook. This came up as a drive in the Migration assistant screen, so I had OK'd the transfer. Is this another reason why the migration failed?
Finally, the new work macbook is 10.5.4, and my personal macbook is 10.5.5 - is this another failure issue?
Will I have to wipe the new work macbook HDD, reinstall Leopard, bring up to 10.5.5 or 10.5.6, then manually transfer stuff?
