I am setting up a G4.  All was going well until I installed the software 
for HR deskjet 5550 drivers.  On restart, everything appeared to boot 
properly except that the desktop never established itself - just a blue 
flickering screen.  There was nothing to be done but a hard restart.  I 
restarted again and same thing.  I expect there is a conflict with the HP 
printer extensions but I could never get the computer to start with 
extensions off - restart with shift key down....I have had to reinstall 
my OS X software followed by restoring my system software (to get the 
Classic system in place).  I am going to attempt installing the HP 
software again but this time want to know if anyone can tell me how to 
boot the system with extensions off in the event I run into the same 
problems....sorry for the tangential thread here but I can't imagine if I 
am having problems now with a printer driver installation what Claris 
E-mailer will be like......
