Re: How do I get rid of the blinking question mark?

[Paul Nicholson]

Hmmm, my experience has been that a classic system disk would boot 
pretty much any supported Macintosh regardless of how the install was 
done. But maybe there's a file the your G3 needs that it didn't get 
when the install was done on the 7300.

Anyway, ditch classic and install OS X on it. I have OS X running on my 
old PBG3 WallStreet 266 which I sent off to college with my son. It 
runs well on the G3/266 machine. I think your Lombard has built in USB, 
so you should be able to run Panther. Non USB PB G3s are limited to 
10.2.

it that way.  You were installing a system for the 7300 in the Lombard,
using SCSI Disk mode.
