Actually, mine has a 3.2 GB IDE drive, which is my System disk. I am considering changing it out to a 12 GB IDE drive I have, and going from there. If I put it in a FW box, format it HFS Extended, and do not install a system, I am assuming that the CD will be the ONLY OS, and it will work harder to boot from it. I was so surprised to be having this problem with a "supported" machine. That was why I bought a G3 and upgraded to G4. It was Entry level. Now, Xposto mentions an issue of sorts with Beige DT WITH G4 upgrades. I am also considering taking the G4 ZIF out and putting the G3/266 back in for testing purposes. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
