Re: universal bootable disk

[David M. Ensteness]

Disk Warrior does that, it has blessed systems from 7-9.2.2 and OS X. 
Never looked into how it works but it might be a pattern for you.

Hi all,

I am trying to make a universal bootable disk. I am working with 
several machines and I want to be able to take one disk to do 
maintence on
these machines. These machines include 400mhz iMacs, a G3 tower and a 
G4 tower.
Now a funny thing happened. I have tried several times with no 
success. I tried burning a disk image from the original iMac disk and 
then tried
to boot from it. No luck, then I tried the original iMac disk and 
guess what it would not boot from it either. Out of desparation I had 
a image
disk copy of a Norton system works system 9 and X and believe it or 
not it worked. I was able to boot from the Norton disk into OSX. Can 
someone
explain this to me or what I am doing wrong so that I can make a 
bootable disk for the iMac ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated........

Thanks so much

Pam
