Have you tried re-running XPostFacto after the install? In other words, when the OS X install finishes, boot back into OS 9 and run XPF again. This re-installs the stuff that gets overwritten by the X install. It's always worked for me. If I don't do this step, X won't boot here either after the install. After re-reading your message, I'm now not sure where your problem lies. Are you saying the machine won't boot into OS X *after* the install, or that the CD won't even boot to *do* the install? If it's the latter, and your CD drive is SCSI, make sure nothing is conflicting with your CD drive's SCSI ID. OS X is very picky about SCSI IDs, termination, etc. Dan _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.
