Mac was working fine. What I was trying to do was burn a dmg file to my flash drive, and it was copying the file contents and everything, but then I got the pinwhell that just kept spinning. It went on for a while and locked the system, so I was unable to do anything. I hard powered off the computer, and then the Mac wouldn't reach into the os. It just gets to the apple logo screen and spins, but stays there forever.
It's a powerbook g4 with 10.3. Pretty old I know and it doesn't help that I'm not a mac person. I went online and saw some boot options like holding the shift key, command key + r, and option key. Shift key just shows me the apple logo and does nothing. Command + r doesn't work; I don't think I have a recovery partition. The option just shows me my hard drive.
