I have a Dual 2 Ghz PPC G5 with 1,5 GB DDR SDRAM with Tiger RECENTLY installed.
I tried to defrag my mac with Norton Utilities 8.0. While running Disk Doctor, N.U. told me that there is a major problem in the B-tree structure, but couldn't fix it. (there was also a strange file on my desktop called BootX...)
After installing TechTool Pro on my HD, the appl. asked me to restart.
Everytime there's a window appearing asking to "restart by pressing the power button for a few seconds". This happens after the load screen with the Apple logo. It's a black transparent window on a drawing of the power button and is stated in 4 languages.
When I do nothing for minutes, my G5 starts to make the sound of a starting airplane ..
Then I tried to restart with the Tiger boot cd. This worked and I could choose my external LACIE HD as my start-up disk because my internal HD was not viewable.
And even on this external HD desktop I couldn't find my internal HD anymore ... (?) It's gone.
Can anyone help me ?
