Hello Bondster<
Apparently, I finally got things right. I put in the apple X disk and
clicked on XPF and then left the computer for about an hour. When I retuned
OS X was running! I installed upgrade OS 10.1 successfully as well. However,
I have a problem I never had before. When I attempt to load classic, I can
get the picture for installing it. But after a few secinds I get a bonging
sound and the procedure freezes. What causes that?
