OK, I can get my G4 Quicksilve (OS X 10..11, 800 MHz, 1.5GB RAM) to
boot from the new HD but if the old HD is not present it simply will
NOT boot.
I tried with another HD set as Slave and had no luck.
I tried it with JUST the new HD and no luck. Put the old one back in
as Slave and it boots fine.
I Zapped the PRAM, twice (once with the original HD and once after I
removed it, in an attempt to get it to boot with another HD in the
Slave position).
What shall I try next?
PS...the original HD is now deciding to not show as having any HD
issues when I look with Disk Utility but I just want to be careful.
