Er zat een (vrij ernstig) bugje in MacOS 8.5, wat ik me wel kan voorstellen, want ik laat zonder problemen 4 Macs in een minuut crashen op de Chooser (en dan ik niets anders dan proberen om een andere Mac via het netwerk te bereiken). Vergeleken met MacOS is Windoos rock solid.
Anyway, hier wat info over MacOS 8.5.1 uit een artikel van The Register:
pple is preparing an update for MacOS 8.5, due to ship early next year, but possibly in line to appear later this month.The new release, MacOS 8.5.1 interestingly appears to solve a problem that Apple had previously denied existed, despite numerous complaints from users.
Since the release of 8.5, many Mac owners have informed Mac-oriented Web sites of difficulties getting freshly upgraded machines to boot successfully. In some instances, drive partitions were overwritten, destroying users' data and applications.
Despite a growing body of evidence for the problem, Apple claimed it had been unable to replicate users' symptoms. Indeed, Apple has yet to acknowledge the problem.
However, 8.5.1 is believed to contain a new version of Apple's hard drive formatting utility, Drive Setup 1.6.2, which will install a more robust hard disk driver, according to source close to the company, quoted on Macweek.com.
