Also upgraded HD like you, to a 75 GB with the 8 GB partition- had some ram issues prior to the installation of OSX- she was on 9.1 already, so bought new RAM chip (256 MB) from 1 source (Apple dealer), which was not recognised in OS 9 as 256- saw it as 128... tried different position, resetting, etc., no joy. Took chip back, and then they realised they had given me the wrong one! I sourced the correct one locally again, different Apple dealer (DPI Mac in TO) and that worked fine. The OS X install went fine after all this. Don't know where you are located, but try Mantek (Winnipeg) or CanadaRAM (Vancouver), or DPIMac in TO.
