Hello list Does anybody know ? Is it possible to Boot from a Firewire 800 connected external drive to a PPC or Intel Mac Thanks Bob Google does not seem to give a positive answer !
As long as the external drive is not a WD MyBool, in which case It certainly will not work if you're on a PPC Mac, but it MAY work if (a) your machine is an Intel Mac, and (b) your external drive use a GUID partition map.
