Sounds like you got it right.

I was in a similar boat. I upgraded an iMac to 10.5, but something go messed up BAD.

I did a full SD backup immediately before the upgrade. I all needed to do was boot from the backup and do a copy from the backup partition that I booted from to the Macintosh HD.

System recovered. Flawless. (Which is why I grovel before the mighty Shirt Pocket. *grin* )

I ended up re-installing 10.5 from scratch (rather than upgrade), and everything is fine. I was able to restore the user data & settings from the backup partition also. Sweet!
