[QUOTE="krs, post: 1904613, member: 67742"] I haven't cheked this thread for a few days, but... Target Disk mode was already suggested at the very beginning of this thread as the simplest option but eliminated early on, in posts 2 etc. because the OP had no power cable for the G4 and was also doubtful that the G4 would even turn on. The OP probably does not have a FW cable either. And not having a keyboard or monitor for the G4 possibly as well if a password is required to boot up the G4. As far as I remember, to get to Target Disk Mode, one needs to start the G4 Mac, and once it starts booting, hold down the T key until you see the Target Disk Mode screen with a bouncing Thunderbolt logo. Hard to do with no keyboard or monitor - or is there another way? [/QUOTE]
