- My setup: 17in SD iMac G5, 1GB RAM & 12in iBook, 1.5GB RAM (Both computers standard config.)
I have an old Beige G3 All-in-one that was running OSX 10.2.8. I had installed a 40GB HD an partitioned it so that OSX would run. I wanted to reinstall from the ground up so i put an OS 9 CD in and booted from it. I got done will that and everything seemed to install finebut when i restarted the computer it would not boot into OS 9. I tried to boot from a CD but the computer refuses to boot from it.
While i would like to get the computer working again it is not imparative that it be fixed. I have been begging my parents to get a new computer for a while now and i think this may finally do it.
My dad was looking at the macmall magazine and he picked out the high end iMac so i pretty much gave up on fixing the old G3
I would appreciate any help fixing the G3 mostly because i want to take it to college and use it as a server or something of that sort.
Thanks for any help!
