So i reverted back to an older SCSI hard drive i had that contained 9.1. I'm getting further now but once the mac icon comes up and the HD starts booting 9.1, it automatically reboots and continues doing so indefinitely. I've zapped the PRAM about 5-6 times now but to no avail?
Any other suggestions?
