Hard drives have configurations for slave or master depending on if
they are the boot drive or a secondary drive.

Will it boot with an OS installer CD in the drive?
Hold down the C key to start from a bootable disc (DVD, CD)

I am reposting this because the old post I made got sidetracked
and I
could not get an answer.
I have an iMac G4 that will not boot past the folder with a
question
mark. I have tried this using 3 different HDDs and the only one
that I
can get to boot any farther is a bad HDD (it's also the only HDD
that
any of my computers will recognize). I have tried booting the
computer
using Mac OS 9, 10.1, 10.2, and Debian Linux. All stop in the
middle
of the boot.
