Boot back into OS9, and run XpOStFacto again. This time, choose your hard drive in the "Start from" pane. The button should change to restart. I find I can't boot directly into OS X immediately after the install.
"Startup Disk X" is a replacement for Apple's Startup Disk. It's a free download from Sonnet. Since you're not using a Sonnet card, I wouldn't recommend following the second part of the installer's instructions. In OSeX it adds some kernel extensions, but if you run it in OS 9, it only installs the new CP. Don't give up, though. If you can boot from the CD and install, I would suspect you'll eventually be able to find the problem. On Friday, March 22, 2002, at 04:49 AM, Phillip L.
