Luis,
This is a little off topic so if you could respond off list, I was wondering if I could ask you a few questions about this install?

I don't know.  It might work if you pre install XpostFacto (assuming
you are talking about 10.3 here).


Anyone else on this one for a series II Wallstreet? It didn't need
XpostFacto to install OS 10.2.8, being officially supported by Apple.
I'm hoping to get OS 10.3 from Apple with the iLife suite on DVD
($54) but won't be able to use the DVD on the Wallstreet unless I can
clone it from the G4... (lots more $ for the CD with ilife)

Thanks again

I have installed 10.3 on my Wallstreet with the help of XPostFacto and it worked well after working out two hitches that were known at the time. One was related to the colors on the screen (a lot of purple :-)) and was solved by removing a specific file (don't remember exactly but the issue was well documented). The other was the lack of built-in support for the ejection of cardbus cards (solved by downloading a kext that someone had prepared). After that, it has been working strong ever since and is now running 10.3.9 (using just the regular Software Update feature for all updates since the initial install).

Fixes for the above mentioned issues may or may not have been incorporated in later versions of XPostfacto - i don't know. I do know that some people have even put Tiger on Wallstreets, but I chose not to, because I have 4 macs running Tiger now, and my Wallstreet is working great as it is.
