I have reinstalled OS X 10.4.11 due to boot failure. I archived the previous system before reinstalling the OS. following the HT2196 Article, I tried to creat a new image of the archived files, but when I went to the User Folder, there was no data in it. What happened to the data from the Previous System?
Power PC-OTHER, Mac OS X (10.4.11)
If you did a proper Archive and Install it will be in the Previous System.

This document explains how to correctly reinstall a prior version of Mac OS X in the event that other troubleshooting does not resolve an issue:
Klaus1,
Thanks for your post. I have already gone through the Archive and Install process using the HT1710 document. At that time, I checked the Save Users and Networks option.
The HT2196 article doesn't help, because I find no files in the User Folder.
This link takes me to the Apple Support home page for some reason...

Any other thoughts on how to find the Users files?
Are they not in the Prevous System folder either?
When I went to the User Folder, there was no data in it. What happened to the data from the Previous System?
