Then maybe you should try it the other way around, put the info you are currently using on the external and the internal can then use the restored software. When you want to start up from the more modern software the start up control panel should work but if not you could fire up the external a few seconds before the CPU and hold down Shift, Option, Delete, and Apple keys, should boot off SCSI then, even better might be to put a SCSI drive in the top bay (if it's empty) Note to self: work on that old 6400 to make it a fax machine too, now where did I put that original CD book.....???? -- Alan Miller Underwater Photographer http://home.earthlink.net/~uwphoto/ 6400/200 w/ Sonnet G3/300/1 eBay ID uwphotoer -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
