Any clues?
HD formatted incorrectly? Needs OS 9 drivers perhaps?
Reformatting the HD is normally destructive to the data currently on
the HD. You may be able to add the required OS 9 drivers non-
destructively by using Disk FirstAid to "Update OS 9 drivers", but I
don't know this is possible, it's just a supposition that I've never
had confirmed by anyone. To reformat the HD you'll need to do this
with Drive Setup in OS 9 or Disk Utility in OS X. Set it as HFS+ with
Apple Partition Map and if you're using Disk Utility check the box of
OS 9 drivers.
