Needed to backup a DVD. On Linux, Brasero failed to finish reading the disk, and never said why. The MacBook Disk Utility errored out with -39. Back to Linux dvdcopy - error reading Title VOB at block 159. No luck - giving up.

New MacBook - File Sharing
File sharing is finally easy. System Preferences -> Sharing -> Turn sharing on. Option to log in as the user for total access. At last. The MacBook and iBook share wonderfully. Haven't been able to get the Linux box or the XO laptop on board yet - they see the file shares in Avahi, but can't connect to them.

New MacBook - Migrating
The new MacBook arrived a couple days ago, and I finally touched it tonight. The new MacBook had OS 10.5, the old iBook has 10.3.9. The iBook wouldn't run the Migration Assistant, and I don't have a Firewire cable anyway...so we used the house wireless, I logged into the iBook through file sharing on the MacBook, and moved most of Library by hand. Great web page detailed which files to move...but can't find it any more.
