Decided today to try to get a little more life out of the old Wallstreet by putting in a new hd. I had a 30g Hitachi i bought six months ago and stuck it in. Holding down the C key I tried to boot to the 10.2 disk, but only got the flashing question mark. This made no sense so I tried resetting pram, power manager, tried an external keyboard, used a zip with 9.1 on it, and diskwarrior but no luck.
Thinking I must have damaged something, I took the new drive out and replaced the old. It started up and I was able to boot the 10.2 disk. Put the new drive in an enclosure, hooked it up to my G4 and formatted and partioned it. Back into the Wallstreet and the same problem. I have installed a number of drives over the years, but this has me stumped. Its got to be something simple I'm overlooking - a real forehead smacker. Could someone please tell me what I'm missing here? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
