Maybe join OWCs Xpostfacto Forum ... it's just $10 ...
I went to their tech suppoort forum and found out that version a11 had
been released which did let me do the install. Now there are are a couple
of other issues that are better asked else where. Thanks for the suggestion.

I'm using XPostfacto 3.0a10 to try to install Panther onto an 8600/G4.
The target drive is 40Gb ide connected to a Tempo ATA 133. It has been
freshly formatted by Drive Setup from OS9.2.1.
XPostFacto copies some stuff to the target drive and then restarts to install Panther. At that point all I get is a series of "No bootable HFS partition" messages followed by a series of "Can't open deblocker package" messages.
I have tried partitioning the target drive as one large volume and 5
smaller volumes (to be sure I was under 8GB). I have also tried using
the
built-in SCSI (which normally boots OS9.2.2) as a helper drive. None of
this worked.
Any suggestions?
