Not necessarily. A HDD doesn¹t always completely fail and render itself
undetectable.

Subject: RE: a1076 Boot Up
Hm. Do you have recovery disks or any kind of installation media? If
so, you can check the SMART status of the drive, and if it is OK, you can
attempt to reinstall OS X. If SMART reports drive errors, replace the HDD.
If a reinstall does not work, I would guess the HDD or possibly the RAM.
This is a guess and a poor one at that. IIRC it checks for a DVD drive and it
doesn't have to be internal. You should be able to do it with a USB DVD drive.
You could also use an OS X compatible IDE to USB adapter and use the control
board on the adapter.

10.2 is slow. Panther and Tiger are a lot better.
As far as I know there isn't. Even if there was it would be so dreadfully slow
you would want to throw it out the window. OS 10.2 felt slow on my 400 MHz iMac
with a gig of ram, so I'm sure Leopard would be worse.

How can I get Leopard on a 400mhz iMac G3? I know it is impractical, but I want
to do it.

Thanks, Do you think a custom kernel would get it to boot? If I remember right
there is a custom kernel for the G3.
There are 4 400MHz G3 iMacs 3 have Firewire ports If you have a F/W port then
make a Carbon Copy Clone of the 10.5 system and use Target Disk Mode with a
Fire Wire cable to
It currently runs Tiger. I have ran Leopard on a 400mhz G4 it is just removing
the need for AltiVec at this point.

Alex,
Really, what size hard drive to recommend depends upon what you'd like to do
with the iMac. For what use is it destined???
