A while back I attempted to install Tiger on my 266 MHZ Beige G3. Today I received a Sonnet G4/500MHZ CPU I had bought off eBay. I installed it and tested it.

I decided to reattempt my Tiger install. I ran Xpostfacto with my Tiger DVD in my DVD drive, it began the install and appeared to reboot successfully (I saw the grey

apple logo) I thought I was all set when and this came up

and a high pitched Wheeeeeee sound came from my monitor when the final screen came up.

Config is

USB 1.1 card

Apple 10/100 ethernet card

Sonnet 500 MHZ G4 processor upgrade

80 GB hard drive with 7GB primary partition 70 GB(or so) OS9 partition on primary Master no jumper on drive

Pioneer DVD - RW drive on Secondary Master

100 MB Zip drive on Secondary Slave.

Apple Color Plus 14" Display

Any Ideas? I suspect the monitor may have something to do with it but I'm not sure.
