I just got the Fantom Drive 120 gig firewire unit from MacMall (fast delivery! Got here in 3 days using ground delivery!). It's now formatted as journaled HFS, and I was able to use Drive Genius to do a full backup of my powerbook's HD. All is well.
Except.....shouldn't I be able to boot from the drive by turning on the computer and holding down the "T" key? I tried that and I do get the "firewire" emblem bouncing around the screen, screensaver-style. Am I missing a step? Thanks! later............Howard -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
