Hi Martin,

How about your Firewire enclosure, is it this one?

http://www.ebay.de/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=160684970770

The seller says it has this controller: PMC 0633 Pm39LV512-70JCE

but he cannot tell me if this controller will boot a Mac. Does yours?

My external Firewire HD had an Oxford controller and booted my G4 but
it died recently, red LED along with the normal blue one. Apparently
the disk doesn't get power anymore because it won't spin in the
enclosure but works in another one.

But the other one has an Initio controller and won't boot my Mac.

I think about getting a Freecom Quattro dock, it's quite expensive but
has eSATA, Firewire 400/800 and USB. Has anybody on this list some
experience with this dock? It accepts 3.5 and 2.5 inch SATA HDs:

Kind regards, Jörg.
