With that ordeal, the HD might have been dismounted by the Macintosh SE/30. Try a Disk Tools disk (make sure to lock it!) and use Apple HD SC Setup (patched if necessary). You sho…

I was under the impression that Intel Macs could not boot from USB, but PPC Macs could (at least of the proper vintage). I have booted G3 iMacs from Zip drives (with an ISO filesy…

As to G4s and USB booting, my G4/500DP happily boots from a USB drive. I've booted Leopard and OS 9 off various USB drives.
