I recently upgraded my Powerbook G4 1.5Ghz 15 inch with a clean install of Tiger (after an archive & install failed) and everything is great except whenever I try to create a new user account so I can keep my girlfriend out of my own it silently fails but apparently gets as far as creating the file structure for the new account.

At the time the Console has:

Code:
2005-05-19 17:19:57.223 System Preferences[1639] ### Error:-14120 File:DSRecord.m Line:349
2005-05-19 17:19:57.227 System Preferences[1639] ### Error:-14120 File:DSRecord.m Line:349
chown: meganarendt: Invalid argument
2005-05-19 17:19:58.300 System Preferences[1639] *** NSRunLoop ignoring exception '*** -[NSCFArray objectAtIndex:]: index (0) beyond bounds (0)' that raised during posting of delayed perform with target 37ce40 and selector '_selectNewUser'

Anyone seen this one before? I tried a Repair Permissions but that had no effect.
