I have a dual 2.3 G5 and also a lot of earlier PowerMacs that were highly upgraded and usually being booted via external Firewire HDs to avoid the slower SCSI bus. My experience with LSI brand chipset Firewire external devices was a little iffy. AFAIK LSI never provided any firmware updates for their chips, and when I used LSI external drives I had some intermittent problems where the driver would unmount the HD, which if this was also the boot drive, would result in panic. I doubt you’re booting your G5 from an external Firewire HD, but if you’ve got an LSI external Firewire HD attached, this might be the problem? I have much better luck with Oxford Firewire devices, which were generally rock solid as long as the firmware was updated to the latest version. -- -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
