hum. If it shows up in the prefs then it's a valid system to boot from... Does it seem to delay at all, as if it's searching for that boot volume? I'm thinking maybe because it's the 6th device in the search order, it's not "ready" for some reason when the strap reaches for it. If you select that boot volume then close the prefs and restart normally, does it work? If you zap the pram, does it work? If you boot holding down the option key - which should show you the boot choices, is it listed? How old is your pram/backup battery? - Dan. -- - Psychoceramic Emeritus; South Jersey, USA, Earth --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
