Pretty retarded (sorry) then of Apple to treat TDM like the only choice for migration assistant.
Guess I moved everything for nothing. It appears my only choice short of taking the MDD apart is to create a fresh backup via my external USB 2 drive, and then hooking it up to the iMac and using MA via USB. Which is what I was going to do originally.
I tried connecting the two macs via ethernet cable, but the MA on the new mac says to launch MA on the old mac and select "to another mac"-- but that option's not there!
Total headbanger. Glad all this went smoothly for the rest of you.
