Did you format the target drive with Apple disk setup software first?  I
didn't know about this at first and just formatted the volume with the
finder and nothing happened--the disk setup program writes the bootup
blocks the Mac needs.

I inherited the drive [with 1.6GB used] and have not formatted it myself.


I get a LaCei [sp] popup at boot, saying it's ID 5.

What utility should I use to refomat it; Apple's or theirs?
