Okay, I just finished doing an erase and install.
During my initial Leopard install, I chose to do an erase and install, then format my drive as a case-sensitive file system. I need parity with the Linux machine and sources I work with.
Post-install, I did all the normal configuration, install of third party applications, etc, etc -- the stuff that tends to take hours with a new install.
But alas! I discovered it's not possible to install CS3 on a case-sensitive file system! I wasn't relishing the thought of reformatting and reinstalling everything, but I didn't have much choice.
Time Machine to the rescue. Set up the first backup. Reboot into installer and reformat drive as case-insensitive (boo!). Reinstall Leopard.
Boot into Leopard and use the migration assistant to restore apps, users, config, files.
Beautiful. I can see Time Machine coming in *very* handy. It's superb.
