Hi, I've been using OSX on an internal drive for some time. Now booting it gives: Default catch! code=FFF00700 at %SRRO: 01C00570 00083070 Open Firmware 2.0f1 To boot from MacOS type BYE enter To boot from default boot device type BOOT enter To boot from Open Firmware serial I/O type TTYA I/O
if I type Boot (hoping for the internal drive with X, I get 'Boot Claim failed' TTYA etc. gives a dark sceen and no HDD spin only MacOS works, booting to an external SCSI drive with two partitions (first = OSX, second = OS9) into OS9. If you think the internal drive is dead, it is not because when I boot the external OSX (see above), the internal IDE drive hums nicely and mounts. I feel like deleting some files (how to tell if they're corrupt?) on the internal drive and replacing them with 'good' files from the external OSX HDD partition. Complete re-install - maybe, but lately the Install CD hasn't been seeing the internal drive. I suspect a firmware problem (based on above) - does CUDA do anything, or maybe PRAM reset 10 times?
