Hello everyone, I have an iMac G3 Flower Power that sadly its hard disk died recently.
I replaced the hard disk with a SSD and a IDE-SATA bridge board.
The SSD is recognised, I can see it as an icon when I hold Option on boot.
If I boot the iMac into FireWire Target Disk mode I can also read the SSD from my eMac.
It won't boot off the SSD normally, I get a ? floppy.
But if I boot into OS X 10.4 using my eMac in FireWire Target Disk mode, I can select the SSD as a Startup Disk and boot into it just fine.
Does anyone have any ideas so I can get it to boot on its own, and I can put it back together and stop looking at it upside-down?
Thanks!
