I had a similar issue with my Intel iMac. A autoclean with AppleJack
fixed the problem. The only drawback to AppleJack is that you have to
run it in single user mode (hold down cmd-s after the startup chime.)

Dear List Members:
I have a Beige G3 and a Blue and White G3. I want to install the
Beige's hard drive into the Blue and White, but the Blue and White
will not mount the Beige drive. I suspect that there are some driver
issues involved, but do not know how to remedy the situation.

OS x can't read the linux file system straight off.
I think you must start up with the Fedora cd. Do not use the alt/
option key, but rather use the Fedora disk as you would an OS x
install disk.
Put the linux disk in the drive, restart your computer, and press the
c key so your mac will start up

Hello all,
I need to call on your collective wisdom. I am a long time Mac user, but a
newbie at "looking under the hood". My question is about my Power Macintosh
G3 Beige. A couple of months ago, I pulled it out of storage with the goal
of upgrading it to have a second computer around the house

ROM Rev A only limits you to Master IDEs, only, no Slave IDEs.
ROM Rev A has nothing to do with 8 GB limitation,

I dumped the preferences without any change, I had already fixed the
permissions.
I noticed that I can move windows around but I can't move items in the
windows. Later today I'll try some of the other suggestions.

I hope folks don't mind if I ask a Unix-y question. I've grown fond of
using rsync to keep my iTunes collection synced across various Macs. I
just point rsync at my Linux server, and push or pull the iTunes

This is wrong. The B&W was pre-cable select and needs to be either
master or slave.

Yes there is a Readme with Applejack and in it is the following:

So the question still is; HOW TO LOG OUT?
The last item on the Apple menu is

What worked for me was rather simple, Make disk images and mount them
before you start the game. Disk image formats must be the same. Also
look for hidden or invisible files in the CD partitions they sometimes
just don't get copied with the rest,
Good luck

If the instruction that come with the applejack application are not
understandable then I would recommend that you trash the program and
not attempt to run it under any circumstance.

There is no direct equivalent to the option key. You can hold down the
"c" key to start up from the optical drive.
I checked the Icon settings in the view menu which were set to none
but the icons were still frozen.
I took Eric's suggested to try Applejack which I installed, booted
into single user mode, ran the complete suite of repairs and I can
move icons with the mouse both on the desktop and in open windo

I used Applejack to test my RAM.
I never log in either, I am the only user on my machine.
All I did was Shut Down, then Start up using Cmd-S.
The rest was pretty automatic.
No problems.
Good luck!

I second making disk images of the CDs, with Disk Utility. The Mac
thinks the disk images are the actual disks, except they're always
available on the hard drive. You can put the original disks away for
safekeeping. Look up how to make a disk image of a CD if you don't
know how to do it.
