I just bought my first MAC G4 Dual 450 from a friend (who bought a new G5). He gave me .dmg files of the panther disks 1-3 and the X code as well. I have now coastered about 10 disks trying to figure out how to burn a bootable CD so I can reinstall Panther to 2 40G disks (internal) instead of the 1 20G disk I got with the machine. I also have a 160G external Firewire disk and a Plextor PX-716 DVD/CDR burner.
I can't seem to get this to work right. I am a Linux user and can burn bootable CD's from image files all day long, but this is just killing me and getting rather expensive.
I have made sure to mount the dmg file for each of the 4 disks, tried just burning a data cd, then burned to an image and burned the image to cd, tried a mac volume, nothing seems to work. Yes I have made sure to hold down the C key after rebooting and putting in the new blank HD's. Also tried to option key to see what bootable device is there and with the 2 new blank HD there is nothing. All I see if I hold down C is a blue screen with a little folder with the MAC picture and then a question mark flashing back and forth.....I am using Roxio Toast Titanium 6.0.3 to try to burn the CD's
Can someone please, please help me so I can use my 2 new 40G HD's?
Thank you VERY much in advance
