Listers,
My G3 BW will not boot up.unless I use Safe Mode. When I try
to boot normally, I see a rectangular black box in the center of my
monitor. The box appears pretty early in the start-up sequence.
I have nothing connected

Can a Smurf G3 be booted into Target Mode?
No.
I want to upgrade the OS to 10.4.11 but the Smurf does not have a
DVD drive.
Options:
1) Tiger CD Installer 4 disc set
2) Use XPostFacto helper disk to boot from external Firewire DVD
Smurfs didn't have that functionality as far as I recall. Alternative would
be to use an ext enclosure kit to attach it VIA firewire to another newer
Mac that supports TD mode

The smurfs (pitufos in Spanish) were very popular in the early 1980s Spain.
When the PowerMac G3 BW appeared, it was quickly nicknamed pitufo as both
were blue and white.
The original iMac G3 was popularly known as cabezon (Big headed), while the
fancy iMac G4 was known as Lamparita (desk

Only one of those links even comes close to the explanation of Smurf,
and that is the lowendmac that includes a picture of smurfs with no
label saying that this is a smurf on the page. Others just say
something to the effect of
On one page that came up on a reasonable search request,
there were some smurfs with red in them! I think red hats or boots, I
forget!
That was an one off smurf,chief of the group! There were also black smurfs,
born from standard stock smurfs.

I'll check the Network preference pane. Later today, when I get back
there.
I agree about re-installing the Realtek client software. Of course, if
it doesn't run under Tiger, I guess I'm in deeper doo-doo than I
