Well tonight I decided to reinstall Tiger on the drive that the G5
shipped with, since I hadn't really done much with that in terms of
installing software, having concentrated on the Leopard that I had put
on the second HD and though the seller had done a clean and sensible
install of OSX, I
Well still no success with FW400 on the G5.
Kris, I downloaded the update, but I'm somewhat loath to use it as I
don't think it's an OS issue: I have both Tiger on the drive it came
with, and Leopard on the SATA drive I put in. FW400 works in neither
- if it worked in tiger but not Leopard then

I've had similar issues before, with both software and hardware
causes. Hardware is always someone tried to insert a FW400 plug upside-

I had to disable firewire support on it or it wouldn't sleep, and clearly it

Well I tried resetting PRAM, and no difference.
(I can't find the reset button on my motherboard to do the PMU: I
have the take-apart guide stored on another Mac so I'll look at that
later).
I've also done open firmware reset(does this reset the PMU?)

10.4 installed on an 80GB drive, and I put in a 500GB drive, and installed
10.5 on to it (my first SATA experience - went very smoothly) via Firewire
800 from one of my MirrorDoors, which came with a Time
