[QUOTE="briona, post: 154717"] Thanks for the SCSI tip! That was the boot problem. Next problem is with the hard drive partion. -This hd has had Mac OS X on it before. -During the installation, I try to partion the HD but it can not dismout the drive because it is in use (even though there is nothing on it) -I have tried to us a PC with Fdisk to create and remove partions on this HD with no change to the above problem. -I put this HD in the G3 as a second HD and it seems to hang on the dismount also Any ideas on how to get this thing partioned so I can actually install the OS?
