Marc, First of all, you don't need XPF for Jaguar (10.2.x) on a Beige G3. Second: This is a very welknown problem with G3's. I answered this queri already yesterday on this List. So again: Boot in OS 9. Download and use "System Disk" instead of Apple's control panel "Startup disk", Goto: <http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Apple_Software_Updates/En glish-North_American/Macintosh/System/Mac_OS_X/System_Disk_Utility.smi.bin> Select now Jaguar as your Boot-system and try again. I always had success in case of this problem with unsupported OS X Macs and G3's. So IMHO worth the try, simply to do and costs nothing. Having problems with the dl, mail me OffList and I'll send it to you, < 300K .smi.
