He didn't say crash-proof. He said most anticrashable. That means it's hardest to crash. Oh phulease read the post next time.

links ok, ROM ok, os8 does not run
boot with extensions off it says no file system or smth

The partition that i just formatted, after a reboot was gone, no more bootable, not even windoze so i made a big hsv file that works ok

installed netscape(4.05) and ppp
when running netscape all system(os/emulator in fact) halts for 10-20 sec, and then back on ok

rest it's working fine :)

Get rid of A/ROSE, it's in System Folder -> Extensions (if it even got installed), and update to OS 8.1.

As for Netscape, that is unfortunately normal on THG.

Did you try out the NAT?

Lastly, only format whole disks af HFS, and only in WinNT/2000 :)

"...The G4+ may be faster than a T-bird at the same clock speed, but Motorola hasn't been able to go further than 733 mhz and AMD has been manufacturing for a while 1.2 Ghz processors...."

And worse yet for Apple, the 733 G4 will not be out until April (if it is on schedule, by which time AMD will have Athlons out that will be in the 1.4 - 1.5 Ghz range. 733 just wasn't enoough to keep Motorola/Apple in the game. They needed to jump directly up to the 1 Ghz range if they wanted to be competitive. But...they didn't and probably will not for a long, long time.

Well i reason i dont like MACS you can't tweak the hell out of them. i tried 6 hours to get Linux on Brother's G4 400. i got it on the mac to work in linux. i threw the no button mouse away. i bought him a new mouse Microsoft intelli mouse. Him MACS ARE HARD TO UPGRADE.

MAC OSx is like WINDOWS, Not OPEN SOURCE

MAKE SURE you download Linux kenral 2.4.0 its a good one
