It seems to vary indeed, from the thread from Thurs last week: >Searching PB archives I found comments that only drives <4Gb (some >said <3Gb... and I'm having trouble with a 2Gb HD) would support SCSI >disk mode which led to my inquiry about a fix. "just don't trust SCSI disk mode" if you've upgraded your HD to a larger size than stock, might apply :-/ (on these older powerbooks). If you try it and it works, that's super. But can you even BUY a 2 or 4 gig laptop drive easily anymore? B -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
