Hi All I'm having a little trouble getting a volume on my Wally to
boot via XPostfacto. I put in a 60 GB drive and partitioned it as
follows.

!.     6.55  GB       XpostFacto  Helper      OS 9.2.2      OS 10.3

2.    42.83 GB      OS  10.4.11   OS 9.2.2

3.    6.13    GB   OS 8.6

I can boot OK from  #1  and then boot from a FireWire shirt drive
that has the volume on it that I want  to reside on theWally #2
partition. But after CCC to the drive XPosFacto sees the volume but
it has a no go symbol on it and will not boot. I'm trying another CCC
to that partition after erase using the G3 processor, wow is this
slow. I did the original drive prep using a TIBook so maybe I'm on
the right track now. Any ideas?

Which volume? You have to boot (actually start up from) partition #1. The Wallstreet won't start up if certain files it needs are beyond the first 8Gb of the disk as most of partition #2 and all of partition #3 is. You can use XPF to transfer the booting process to #2 or #3 but the boot volume (as in Startup Disk) must be the one on partition #1.
