Hi folks,
Can anyone offer pointers to solving the following problem for a client? The machine is a G4 1.4GHz Mac Mini, and it was working fine when it left my hands.
Any help appreciated.

My first thoughts are that the iBook install disks wouldn't have worked anyway, being machine specific. Second, that the HD is probably not truly dead, but may need I dunno, permissions repaired or something?Its seems the hard drive has failed.
After tracked down an apple power supply on ebay, I have been
working on this unit over the weekend for the first time
downloading the operating system updates etc. It was working
beautifully last night. I left it on over night, last night and this
morning it had frozen and had to be hard restarted.
It never got past the grey apple screen. I tried every trick in my
book, and even tried to re-install with a set of start up disks
from my old ibook - but that could not find a hard drive to
install to. Which suggests the hard drive has failed.
Any help appreciated.
