PPC will not boot a GUID HDD AFAIK.

You're correct, the partition map needs to be Apple Partition Map which CAN boot both Intel & PPC Macs.


Might this correct a WD Passport external hard drive so it could work on both an Intel and G4 Mac's, if I put it on the Intel Mac and reformat with an Apple Partition Map?

I have never been able to use my WD Passport external USB hard drive with any of my G4 & G5 Mac's.
