Well, that test crapped out! Right after applying the 10.5.4 combo update, I was able to boot up both off of the Sandbox and the main drive. Darn! So much for that theory!
I WAS able to locate the system.log file. I think what I need to do at this point is to work off of the Sandbox, as I prefer to, and periodically try to boot off of the main drive. The next time it won't boot, I'll send you the system.log file.
Now, what I've been doing to recover from this mess is that when I couldn't boot off of the main drive but COULD off of the Sandbox, I've copied my Desktop and Documents folder to some free space somewhere, cloned back using SD! from a working, booting backup, and copying back the desktop and documents. That's really tedious, because it takes about 45 minutes each way to copy the docs and desktop (mostly the docs). Is there a better way?
Thanks, as always, for your help.
