I'm trying to work on a Mac Clamshell iBook laptop.
Have taken it apart and reassembled to replace what I thought was a bad 2.5 gig hard drive.
Now have installed a 10gig hd. I initialized the hard drive and started to reinstall os 9 using the software install disk, but it froze up while updating the disk drivers.
On the second try I let it skip the updating.
While checking the hard drive it came up with an error message that said that the hard disk had disappeared!
Now when I try to initialize it, it can't find the hard drive.
Can only boot with Software install disk.
Help!!!!!!!!!!!!
