I seem to recall somone else with a similar problem with an external
hard drive. In their case it was caused by having the drive plugged in
st startup. If they removed it, waited for the computer to finish
booting and then plugged it in it worked.
Hope this helps

What specifically causes the "Please Reboot...." screen (in multiple

whenever I'm using Tiger and, to access my OS9 files, I plug in my
LaCie
external firewire drive. (But it connects fine when I start up in
'safe"
mode). My boot OSX is on the internal drive only. Thanks.

Hi Kevin
Its called a kernel panic and is not a good thing to be having
repeatedly as
this could lead to data corruption or drive db corruption.
As at right now I cant say why you get it but is firmware on HD most
recent
available?
meanwhile if you can find a workaround such that you don't hit this I
would
use it while searching apple discussion and similar for clues as to the
cause(s).
all the best
Brian
