machine's crashing very often, one of the DIMMs was the reason.

wouldn't start any more. When starting from an installation DVD and
starting the harddisk manager
Hi there,
Is it possible to boot a Beige G3 (ROM revision B) from a HD attached
to PCI-SATA or a PCI-ATA cards made for PC?
Does it depend on the kind of chipset?
I am asking this question because most current HDs are both SATA and
bigger than the 128GB-limit of the Beige G3 original ATA bus.

Which Power Mac G3, and the rest of your config...? OS?
Answers are often more on point if you provide context / details.

Let Time Machine use the other volume. And when it farks up, you can
wipe it out and still have that other volume as your primary backup.

With the later Psystar-specific updates to their OpenComputer, yes.
Also, once you get a generic Intel box up to 10.5.5, then every
