Hi, I recently installed Mac OS X Jaguar on my iBook G3 500 MHz (dual USB). It runs alright, but the main issue I have with it is that shutting down normally (via the Apple menu) does the normal shutdown process but then doesn't spin down the hard disk before cutting power, resulting in it making a worrying *clunk* sound. I have tried both 10.0 and 10.2 and they both do the same thing. Haven't tried any newer versions since I only have 128 MB of ram in this thing.
Is there any way to get Mac OS X to spin down the hard disk properly when shutting down? Is this just normal behavior for this model of iBook?
