Folks I have this strange problem trying to start a iMac G5. The story
runs like this.

1/ I start the machine and get the "blinking question mark".

2/ I start the machine using an install DVD and Disk Utility can't
even see the machine's HD.

3/ I start the machine again using an install DVD and now Disk Utility
can see the machine's HD. Selecting the machine's HD using startup
disk I can now start the machine. It works perfectly.

4/ When I shut down the machine and try to start again it I'm
back at #1, above.

• The computer runs a newly installed OS X.5 and the HD has just been
formated.
• The HD - when visible - registers as all fine using Disk Utility and
Disk Warrior.
• All sleep and energy saving contraptions has been disabled.

Any suggestions?
