Mitchell A59 G.R.I.D. lab closed for upgrades Oct. 5, 2015 - disks to be erased
The
Mitchell A59 G.R.I.D. computer lab
is maintained for individual research and creation of presentations
such as posters. The lab will be closed on October 5
to do a major upgrade of the operating systems and applications on
the dual-boot iMac computers.
This will fix the current bug where no one can login to the Mac OS X
operating system on these computers.
The single computer "Mauro" was removed from the lab on
September 15 to build the new system image. It will be returned
on October 5 when the other computers are upgraded.
All user files created on the local computer disks will be erased!
