Pro's: Is my advice correct? Thanks :)

Hi All,
b Is the advice re fall back into the other partition correct?
Some say the Combo Updater works better than Software Update.
I have partitioned my HD into a large and a small volume. I had 10.4.2 on both and was paranoid about the 10.4.3 upgrade until I figured I would run in "large" and install 10.4.3 in "small". Irrelevant info if no partition I guess.
b If you are partitioned it gives a safety fall back [ I hope ].
BTW all is joy.

Thanks Thomas, we semi's depend on you level 3s & 4s to keep us going. See my prior "not the sharpest knife in the drawer." self descripter.
So the advice was sound, as far as it went. I absolutely agree with your addition that a bootable additional drive, internal or external is much further protection.
For the sake of others following this, note that an External HD has to be
b Firewire
connected,
b not USB,
to be bootable.
[OT] My old External Oxford HD from US Logic died w/o much time on it. That's why I paused on the 10.4.3 upgradeÑuntil I realized I had a fallback, short of Internal HD failure.
