I installed OS10.2, 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5 onto an external FW HD with all the correct versions of my utilities like Data Rescue, DiskWarrior, TechToolPro plus a few others onto each partition. A simple case now of hooking up the drive, booting over FW to the appropriate OS and running the required utility to fix any problems. There are from memory a few problems with upgraded CPUs and sometimes a trip to the terminal or a firmware hack is the best fix. http://www.brad-x.com/2007/10/27/howto-leopard-install-with-giga-designs-g4-upgrade Some utilities I believe also rely on the Gestalt ID of a machine too for identification purposes which can be misleading. I don't know how you'd get around that one though. Stewie _________________________________________________________________ New, Used, Demo, Dealer or Private?
