I think that there was a thread on this at Macfixit - some Lombards with a CPU made during a specific time frame had an issue with the installation of X
I'll see if I can track down further info for you J >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/04/03 16:39 PM >>> Well, it's got me beat. A dozen attempts and I've run out of tricks here. Install CD from caddy - OK, where will it hang this time? Install CD from G3 Beige via Target Disk Mode (SCSI) - runs for a while, freezes. Install, clean, one partition or two - no difference - install process even damages directory so OS 9 partition rendered unusable. Carbon Copy Cloner - OS X actually ran for a half hour - I was cheering - then it froze in networking - found it had overwritten other files and 150 other files exceeded boundaries. Banging it on the table - worked just as well as anything. Running Disk First Aid, DiskWarrior, TechTool always finds errors, repairs them but doesn't solve problem. I even considered getting a firewire box to install as a local drive, but don't see how this would differ from Target Disk Mode. Get another drive? Maybe it's the logic board, I don't know. Consolation - it just loves OS 9. Thanks for listening, Listers. If anyone has another idea I'm willing to try.
