After you are finished reinstalling the system software, make sure that your
computer starts up without any problems. Once you know that the new
software fixed any problems you were having, you can reinstall any special
software (control panels, extensions, or custom utilities that aren’t part of your
system software). It is best to reinstall the special programs from the original
(or backup) disks. If you don’t have the disks, copy the control panels,
extensions, or custom utilities back to your System Folder one at a time,
restarting each time. Check after each restart to see if the software causes a
problem with your computer. If you find that any of your special software
items causes a problem, contact the software’s manufacturer for assistance or
an upgrade.
IMPORTANT
Be very careful not to replace any of the files in the System
Folder with files from the Storage folder.
22 When you have reinstalled or copied any special software, delete the Storage folder.
Installing customized system software
Custom installation allows you to select just the files you want. You can use
custom installation to install or update a single file or to save space on your
hard disk by installing only the files you need.
