I find this to be possible because I have a grey iMac G3 600 OS9.2.2 install disk that came with my machine new and it will work in any G3-G4 machine, however I have one from the same model iMac a Snow model that only will work on the iMac G3 600's John Carmonne Yorba Linda USA Sent from my MBP -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Re: Time Machine on Carbonite?
How do you do a CCC backup over a LAN? Follow the directions in the documentation, which is available both from CCC's Help menu and online. http://bombich.com/software/docs/CCC/en.lproj/index.html Just make sure you get the Target disk names spelled correctly ... I don't believe CCC verifies things along that line, and just starts copying to ... unless he's fixed that. Something about being difficult to do over a network ... CCC over a LAN works great, otherwise. Well back to it again I tried this about 8 mos ago and all I could do over my LAN was a disk image The CCC on my net would save a lot of mickey motion at least on the Gigabit side of the condo the other side is wireless g speed to Ethernet 100 via bridge.

Re: Getting there
The problem seems to be getting a good copy of the appropriate XPF so far 3.0 or 3.1 can't see the install disk. 4.0 says it is not for this Power PC (as I recall I am getting a little foggy in my old age and at this late hour . . .

I've also had several Blue and Whites, all of which ran 10.4 fine. Have you checked if the firmware is up to date? -Jonas -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
