remove Tiger's invisible files?
Hello, Tiger has failed to install on my Pismo. However, since I can start up from the OS9 partition, a Sherlock search tells me that there are a large number of invisible files on that partition. How can I make these files visible and delete them so that I can consider installing Panther? Thanks. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...

It is quite possible that whatever prevented Tiger from installing on your Pismo might well prevent Panther from installing as well.

But see Bruce's reply... Better to figure out what went wrong first... - Dan. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
