To all those more learned in Mac than Me: I have a 5300c that I just upped the ram to 64Meg and put a 6 gig hard drive in. Now the problem. I had the 6 gig in an external USB housing. I hooked the external drive to my ibook and essentially copied the entire cd onto the drive. Installed the drive in my 5300c and started it up. I get just past the smiling mac icon and get an error saying the OS will only operate on the original media. How do I install an OS on the new drive. SCSI Disk is not an option. Don't have a scsi port on my ibook. Tried to install from the CD onto the USB drive but it would not allow me to. All advice is extremely welcome Thanks John Ryan
