[QUOTE="stal1n77, post: 770463, member: 53276"] I had similar problems with a G3 Blue and white, and if you do have a Sawtooth you have a very similar logic board, just with some modifications. Anyways I could not get it too install on any drives, the installer would always hang, and when I installed a system from another computer and moved it into the powermac it wouldn't boot. I traced the problem back to bad ram, removing one bad stick completely solved the problem. Also make you can move around the jumpers, I found with some drives, just putting everything on cable select worked out well. Just a thought if all else fails. [/QUOTE]
