Hey gang -
I just got a Daystar PPC upgrade for my Q950, and decided to install 8.1 onto a spare partition (yay PPC optimization!). However, after installing 8.1, my Quadra insists on booting to the 7.5.5 partition. I've tried the Startup Disk control panel on both partitions, booting from a CD & using the control panel there (and even using the startup disk CD from 8.5 and 9.0).
This thread (http://tinyurl.com/6jsjof) suggests that this might never work, and this thread says I need FWB HDT (http://tinyurl.com/57938f). Is this true? If so, any advice on where to find a copy (my original disks of 2.0 crapped out, and the PE version I have on CD seems to be crippled)? I'd really like to be able to switch between partitions of 7.1, 7.5.5 and 8.1 on the fly.
Thanks!
