Where did you find something that claimed the bootstrap had to be partition 2? My G4 has the bootstrap just before the root filesystem, somewhere around 9 or 10. I don't remember for sure, but it certainly isn't number 2, and it works just fine. I doubt your machine is any different in that respect. Brad Boyer [EMAIL PROTECTED]
