Someone just dropped off a mac g3 at the scrapyard I work at and I picked it up.
It has a failing hard drive. Replaced the drive, downloaded and burned
a disk with mac os 8 on it, but it refuses to boot to it. How do I go
about installing the software on this machine?
Not sure if this is the place to ask, but figured it would be worth a
shot. Thanks.
Hi Devin,
Going from memory you need to press ?C? to boot from CD and you might also need to replace
the PRAM battery.
Cheers
