Was it a Powerbook specific CD ? ( Not absolutely necessary )
You probably should have had to deal with an installer icon and agree
to the license agreement and offered the chance of a custom install.
The CD should boot by holding down the " C " key after hitting the
power button and hearing the startup chime.
Did you press any reset button to dump NVRAM ?
You ,may have to use disk setup to format the disk also. Use HFS +
format.
The CD was PB specific (pretty sure) but there was no installer icon and
no agreement. I pressed the space bar, which I thought was the key
sequence for booting from the CD. I pressed the reset button but only
for a fraction of a second, thinking that since the PRAM had been out
for an hour that all would be reset. Would I still have to push the
reset for a minute or so? And I thought there would be some format
choice but none has appeared. I will give it a bit and then maybe reboot
it. Damn, I hope I don't have to tear it apart again. Thanks Flux.
