Hey all, I'm brand new here so excuse the redundancy or naivete' of this post.
After trying to use the "migration assistant" via firewire of all the old stuff on my 2003 circa powerbook g4 onto my spankin' new macmini, the old powerbook will not boot. All I get is a blank screen.
I tried to reboot with the original software install and restore disk and it popped up but wouldn't let me select a destination. I've zapped the PRAM, tried command+S, run Disk Utility, etc... but nothing. I'll try and go back and get all the error messages from the Disk Utility run to see if it reveals anything.
I'm just trying to retrieve the ability to go back on the old machine and salvage some stuff like email contacts, etc.. I was able to transfer everything onto the macmini but the age of the old machine won't let me open much.
Any ideas? Any solutions?
