I managed to get X installed and running on an 8600 with a G3 on a MPe carrier, Ati XclaimVR 128, Siig Usb card, and a Acard/66 with a 30gig Ibm and 60gig Maxtor.
I got my Biege machine back so I yanked the cards and drives and installed them in the Biege machine. Its a Biege MT with a OWC G4, Rev.D rom, 512megs ram, and Raytheon VRM. After I installed the Ati 128 card, Usb, and the Acard and drives, the MT won't boot into X. It won't install either. When I hit install on the 10.1 cd it just sits at the choosing startup disk before it restarts to install. It will boot into 9.2.2 and work perfectly. The drives are set to master on their own channels on the Acard and the partition I'm trying to install X onto is partition 1 on the 30 gig Ibm drive. Partition 1 is 7.6gigs in size and partition 2 is whatever space is left over on that drive. I also tried to install X on the Biege by using Xpostfacto, but it wasn't able to write to Nvram on that machine. I also tried installing the internal Ide 6gig hard drive and installing on that, but X wouldn't install to it. The working X installation is still on partition 1 on the Ibm, but the Biege won't boot from it. I tried reblessing the X folder and that didn't help. What happens when I try to boot into X so far is that it sounds like its going to boot, then the monitor shuts off and the Biege sits there in silence. I do get the chime though. It doesn't make to switchover to the spinning cd icon and blue screen. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
