I started out with a 10.6.7 Hackintosh and have updated twice, once to 10.6.8 (very painful), then to 10.8.2 (not quite as painful). I'm holding off on a 10.8.3 update because of the reports here. In both cases, I did the update, found that it didn't work, then studied the situation (and the posts here at tonymac86.com!) and kept trying things until something worked. (If you have a better process, please tell me!)
Here's my question: I have a working (more or less) 10.8.2 system. I want to (at some future point) try using the Apple 10.8.3 Combo Update. What's a good "game plan" for preparing to do this so that, if all fails, I can restore my 10.8.2 system? I have an external drive with blank space, I have utilities like SuperDuper and Drive Genius 3, and I've used them before. I've even considered cloning my root hard drive and working on the copy.
I'm sure you're smarter than me! What would you do? Many thanks!
