Difficulty upgrading to Leopard 10.5.1

I upgraded my PowerBook G4 to OS X “Leopard” yesterday. (Thanks, Kasandra!) Looks pretty cool, but one of the first things it tried to do was auto-update to 10.5.1. The system would present a “You must restart to apply this update” message, but upon restarting the system would hang while displaying “Configuring Installation”. After three attempts (and concomitant reboots) I finally gave up and asked Google for help. It turns out that there is a (much larger!) “standalone” 10.5.1 upgrade available from Apple’s Mac OS X 10.5.1 Update page. This did the trick, so now I can actually start exploring Leopard!

The best new feature I’ve seen so far is the Cover Flow view in Finder, a very slick way to browse your files!
