[QUOTE="pcjabber, post: 36606"] Alright, I hosed my Panther install two nights ago, and tried to reinstall yesterday evening. I just let it go after the 3rd CD was in. Now, it rebooted last night, and was _STILL_ on the Gray Apple screen on startup. I have tried going into open firmware (CMD-OPT-O-F) and typing: [CODE]reset-nvram reset-all[/CODE] and, upon startup, zapping PRAM and NVRAM (yes, I know the commands in Open Firmware did the same....) by holding CMD-OPT-P-R until the 3rd startup chime. What shall I do? I need my iBook today or tomorrow, and definately for Monday! Also, how urgent is it to call Apple about that logic board thing for the iBook G3s? Thanks, PCjabber [/QUOTE]
