No, and I feel like an idiot for not even knowing about them. I wasn't aware
of the "Repair Permissions" option in Disk Utility. Jaguar is still
installing, but I'll be sure to run that when I get it going. In the mean
time I'll start researching the prebinding repair and fsck check on the web,
I'm not familiar with them either. If you know of any links that might
explain them, that'd be great.

Thanks for your help...
