I just recently got a Power Mac G5, and the hard drive is missing. So my idea is to take a external 60gig drive that I have (with Firewire 400) and install OSX 10.5 to be able to test this system. The problem that I'm having is the installation. What I'm doing is loading the OSX disk on a Powerbook and after the software examines the disk, it tells me that I can't install on this disk until I go to Disk Utility to partician the disk. After doing that it still will not allow me to install the operating system on the disk. So I need some help with this one. The disk was set up as Fat something, but I changed it to Journaled to Partician it. Does that make any difference?
