[QUOTE="Chilbear, post: 1279367, member: 32643"] I'm not familiar with the G5 but if it is a PPC then Apple format is correct and if it is an Intel then GUID is correct. You may need to reformat the HD into the correct structure before it will let you install the OS and be bootable. I found this and it rings a bell from years ago. [ATTACH=full]15631[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
