I have a Clamshell, used to boot fine under MacOs 9, but last week tried to recover some files and the Ibook refused to boot from the HD.
I can boot from a usb flash drive i made a couple of years ago (MacOS X something) but i want to keep the Clam with a Classic OS.
The Usb install is able to see the hard drive and the MacOs 9 partition, but is refusing to boot from it ( the repair/check procedure says the drive is fine)
In hope it's just a corruption somewhere, because removing and replacing the HD is not an easy task (doable but not easy)
Was thinking trying to image a MacOs 9 disk and use a similar flash drive to have a look at the drive before dismantling the Ibook.
This will work fine ?
