[QUOTE="Tim036, post: 1324345, member: 60561"] My partner has just upgraded to a brand new iMac from one which as about 9 years old. it came with OS X 10.7 Lion, but then her printer didn't work ! a Lexmark combi and no drivers available. No probs, I though, we have an external drive running OS X 10.2 that does support the printer. I plugged it into the firewire port, expecting a chance to boot from that HD, and lo ! Zippo chance of booting although it can see the drive aok and access all its data. Now THE QUESTION:- is there any way to persuade the Lion OS to reboot from that HD ? Any thoughts, very very very welcome ! Tim [/QUOTE]
