Having observed the conversation about system file backups, I was wondering if I could boot from my install CD, access my 7500 as a server, and then run TechTool Pro on the 7500 to defragment my iBooks hard drive with no ill effects.
I tried to make a boot CD to accomplish the same thing. However, despite the computer recognizing it as having a valid system file I cannot get the iBook to boot from it. And I don't actually own a CD burner so it was not easy to try again. -- Mark Chapman - Centre for the Study of Religion - University of Toronto -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
