Okay, did just exactly as you said. Did not work. Booted from the 9.2.2 HD on the first try and would not recognize the other HD. Even tried once with just the OSX HD hooked up, just got the flashing ? that time. Decided it must be a hardware problem of some sort so I'm trying a reinstall of OSX using the option to archive the old system files and install a new copy. We will see. So how can I be selective about how far I upgrade 10.2? Last time it just went to Apple and downloaded updates, 10.2.8 is how it came out. How do I just get it to 10.2.6? -- Just a message from Doug... -------------------------------------------- http://users.adelphia.net/~slugg0/index.html -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
