I have done a complete re-format of the HD (20GB Maxtor). This hard
drive will start my Sawtooth Mac, but not the Smurf.
Any ideas what might be causing the problem with the Smurf?

My G3 BW will not boot up.unless I use Safe Mode. When I try
to boot normally, I see a rectangular black box in the center of my

Can a Smurf G3 be booted into Target Mode?
I want to upgrade the OS to 10.4.11 but the Smurf does not have a DVD drive.

You may also be able to use USB devices IF you have a USB 2.O PCI card

A search with Clusty using Mac model smurf has the first three
hits the Mac G3.
Point the search to Mac first then model then smurf. At least
it seems to work this way. I would imagine the same results would be
returned but farther down the return list
to make sure we are teaching
the next generation of students, how to search, combine ideas and what
to look for.

fancy iMac G4 was known as Lamparita (desk

Only one of those links even comes close to the explanation of Smurf,
and that is the lowendmac that includes a picture of smurfs with no
label saying that this is a smurf on the page. Others just say
something to the effect
On one page that came up on a reasonable search request,
there were some smurfs with red in them! I think red hats or boots, I
forget!
That was an one off smurf,chief of the group! There were also black smurfs,
born from standard stock smurfs.

there.
I agree about re-installing the Realtek client software. Of course, if
