[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 230962, member: 8287"] On the Mini, don't go into any Target mode. Just boot the Mini normally into the OS that is installed on it. Make sure the Firewire cable is plugged into both machines. Then plug your monitor into the Sawtooth, Then hold down that T key and get it into Firewire mode with the bouncing icon. Then with the Sawtooth doing that, unplug the monitor and plug it into the Mini. See if the drive icon from the sawtooth apears. If not, reboot the mini leaving the Sawtooth bouncing it's icon. Then the sawtooths drive should be mounted on the desktop of the Mini. Is that what you are doing? If not try it and get back to us/. [/QUOTE]
