I have to reformat the entire external disc? Or just the partition that I am trying to install it onto?

You have to reformat the whole disc, because the disc is formatted with an Apple Partition Map (APM), which is what the Mac OS has always used up until the Intel Macs. Unfortunatel…

Thanks for the info...I had no idea that changed. Can PPC machines running 10.4 read the discs with the new format? What about Windows machines, would they be able to read this …

Just for anyone else in this situation: I was able to successfully install and boot OS X (Intel) on an external firewire drive partitioned with the APM format. I did it by restor…

So the procedure on that site was correct... interesting. I wonder why the installer doesn't let you put the OS on an APM disk.

Not sure why. I installed Windows XP on my FAT partition. After I did the installed it renamed the partition to "Untitled". I'd like to rename this within OS X to WindowsXP. I…

What piece of crap CMS doesn't work with at least Mozilla based browsers?

Internet Explorer? Hmmm, sounds familiar. Nope, I cannot place the name. Oh well.

Explorer? Isn't that a mouse or something?

Like I said, it's not my choice. I'm just a grunt doing the work. And hopefully IE 5.2.3 will do the trick. Does anyone have a download link to it? It would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Wow, they have Mosaic. I remember that. I want to try it out again. (I know it won't work at all, but hey.)

I'm looking to implement some sort of good -- but not expensive -- remote software for my Mac. Since I'm working long hours away from my Mac, it'd be great to be able to access it…

Search these forums for "Chicken of the VNC"

Also, if you're the least bit paranoid, search for "ssh tunnel" here or "ssh tunnel mac" on the rest of the web.
