Re: Panther on 9600

[Gerald Wilson]

I think there's an incompatibility between the 18G Seagate Barracuda 
and the Sonnet G4 700. I think you would find the disk works with a 
slower G4 (slightly different cpu) or the G4 works without this 
particular drive, but so far my experience is that they just won't boot 
together in OS X.

Greetings,
I have a Powermac 9600 with a Sonnett G4 700 upgrade card, running OS 
9.1 with 480 mg of ram and a ATI Radon 7000 video card. I have a 18 
gig SCSI (barracuda) with just the system folder and XpostFacto3.0a11 
on it  as the boot drive I have the stock 4 gig drive partitioned to a 
3 gig and 1 gig drive. My intentions are to install Panther and 
classic on the 3 gig and OS 9.1 on the 1 gig partition.  I am having a 
problem getting the OSX installer to run, I start XpostFacto3.011 
select "start in OSX" option, select the OSX cd and choose "install 
from cd" the machine then has a confirm installation screen then it 
loads some extensions on the 3 gig volume the reboots. The reboot 
seems to hang for about 20 seconds then OS9.1 starts. I do not have 
error messages coming up and the machine seems to run fine in this 
state. This is my first attempt at an upgrade so any help would be 
greatly appreciated!
Regards
JohnH
