I just installed a My Book 500 GB external USB hard drive on my G4 Quicksilver. I want to install my Tiger OS one of the partitions and use it as my startup disk since this puny 40gig internal drive is too small.
How do I go about installing the OS on the hard drive. When I boot up off the install disk and proceed through the installation, it won't let me choose one of the partitioned drives of the new external drive. A big red "!" is on the icon and it of course says I can't install on that drive. Is it because it is a USB and not a Fire wire drive?
How do I go about achieving my goal?
Thanks in advance!
