Well, that was the first thing I tried. No such luck... the HD connected to
the ATA bus of the G3 MT didn't show up at all (it's a Quantum mechanism).
Jumpers. Master Alone vs Master with Slave vs Slave.
In the meantime I hooked it to my daughter's new PowerBook (no Intel inside)
and formatted it with OS X as a single OS 9 partition. After upgrading the
FireWire extensions in OS 8.6 to the latest release, the HD is recognized
and I can write and read from it. Will be my backup drive...
Cool. :)
