[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 1698251, member: 8287"] Nick, that uses a SCSI bus and yes you could daisy chain SCSI externals and boot from any of them. On the Power PC G3 and G4 and even my last generation iMac G5 Power PC no USB drive would ever boot. There are faqs all over the net backing that up. Many never tried so really do not know. I have never had one G4 or Power PC Mac that would boot from any USB device. [/QUOTE]
