Hi All,
I think there was another person on this list that had the same problem as me but a different machine. I hope my found answer helps someone.
Well the mystery of the HD that wouldn't mount is no longer a mystery.
When I bought the HD, I had asked which HD would fit in my machine. They told me "All of them". So I picked one and had them (CompUSA) install it.
After a couple times it did not work and I could not figure it out and they would not look at it without charging me; even though it was less than 1 year since purchase.
Anyway, yesterday, we took it to the new Apple store here. They determined that the HD was incompatible with the G3AIO. They set it up so that I could copy needed stuff from the old HD, transfered it to their old HD that they had from part, and installed it in the G3 for $0. I traded them the perfectly good incompatible HD for one they had had from parts. Fair deal. G3 forks great now.
I plan to email CompUSA about all the nonsense that they have given me and the lack of support at the store here.

Now that the G4 is up and running I have switched to OS X.3 from the
9.2 that I was using on the G3 iMac. I am doing pretty well with it but
I thought it would be good to get a reference book of some sort to
thumb through and learn some of the finer points of Panther. I went to
the bookstore today and was overwhelmed at the number of titles on the
shelf. Does anyone have a recommendation for a book on OS X.3 that is
work the $30 to $40 price?
The best: "Mac OS X: The Missing Manual, Panther Edition" by David Pogue List, $29.99; Amazon, $19.97.
For beginners: "Mac OS X Panther (Visual Quick Start)" by Maria Langer List, $24.99; Amazon, $16.99.
