One for the wireless gurus - curious internet dropout

Dear 'Muggers Having a bit of a problem accessing the internet via my Airport base station today. The problem doesn't affect my retrieval or sending of e-mail via Airport at all, and if I connect direct via the Pismo's internal modem I can get onto the net with no trouble. If I am connecting wir

This is from Carbon Copy Cloner FAQ. Q(22): Can I use CCC to create a bootable CD or DVD? A: NO. Creating a bootable disk on read-only media is not an easy task (see http://ww.bombich.com/mactips/bootx.html) and is well beyond the scope of CCC. I recommend trying "BootCD" created by Charles S

Creating bootable OS X CD

Hi people, As my paranoia increases with age (!) I want to be able to create my own bootable CD with Norton Utilities (or other utilities) on it so that if I have disk errors while I am on the road I can recover the situation. I was able to do this with an old OS9 version of Roxio Toast. I

FrankenPuter

FrankenPuter sadly died yesterday. FP started as a 333 mHz Powerbook (Bronze) g3. He got an extra 128 meg Ram (making 192), an upgraded HDD now 10Gig) and about a year ago a new screen when the original was cracked. It was running 10.2.8 and 9.2.2. It boots into 9 which is great if you have
