Make Bootable OS 8.6 HD in a G4 Machine

A little background:
A client requested a file that we had backed up long ago to a floppy disk. We had used Disk Doubler on that floppy, so the only machine that could open it was this dinosaur of a Mac, with a 15-year-old SCSI hard drive, no CD burner, and the 8.6 OS.
We were able to connect this machine to our network (this alone seemed miraculous to me) but any time I attempted to move a file to the Full-Permissions folder I'd made *just for such an occasion*, the dinosaur would hang.
After a few tests that left us exasperated, we proposed that the best way to make this work would be to connect the hard drive via SCSI to my G5 machine, powered by a G4 machine that would also serve as a firewire-target-disc-mode external hard drive, and carbon-copy-clone the 15-year-old drive to the target disc in the G4.
I called this the "Frankintosh."
We were able to make this work (surprisingly), except that the newly-made OS 8.6 HD will not boot in the G4 machine. I've tried blessing the drive, but it's very possible I've not done so correctly. I've also tested my hardware configuration by connecting a different HD, which worked fine. The HD is set to master. From what I've researched, it is apparently possible to run 8.6 on a G4, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Josh, welcome to Apple Discussions.
What model G4 is it? Only the early G4 models - PCI & AGP - are capable of running OS 8.6.
I have a G4 1,25MHZ MDD that will boot & run OS 9.2.2 in classic mode. I have DiskDoubler v4.0 on a hard drive & my Mac will open DD in Classic mode while booted in OS X. You could possibly do the same.
 Cheers, Tom

  • I need help transferring Bootcamp (Windows XP) from my old Macbook Pro to the new one. How do I make bootable clone of Bootcamp?

    Hi I just got a new MacBook Pro I need help transferring Bootcamp (Windows XP) from my old Macbook Pro to my new Macbook Pro  Mac OS X 10.7.4  2.6 Ghz Intel Core 17. How do I make bootable clone of Bootcamp?

    you can't just move XP even if you took the hard drive and have Windows boot and function.
    Apparently there are Windows tools to sanitize the OS and strip all the motherboard drivers and services.
    Time to get a supported OS. Don't want to pay, then use 8 for the time until it goes on sale.
    There are no drivers for even Vista on 2011 and later Macs.

  • How to make bootable iso from download

    how to make bootable iso from download

    This one - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5587
    1st:  This is NOT a .ISO file!!
    2nd.  It is a .MSI file which is a Microsoft Installer file.
    3rd:  Read the instructions:
    Install Instructions:
    Click the Download button to start the download.
    Do one of the following:
    To start the installation immediately, click Run.
    To save the download to your computer for installation at a later time, click
    Save.
    To cancel the installation, click Cancel.
    When installation completes a file called readme.txt will open to provide instructions for burning a home computer restore CD. The file is also located
    next to the ISO image file for later reference.
    4th: If you are unable to read and follow instructions, there is nothing anyone in these forums can do to assist you.  You must be capable of reading and following instructions! 
    Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread. ”
    OK, well sorry to disagree with you but:-
    1. Using windows 7, the download does not provide a save but only a run option.
    2. In the MS predownload instructions you copied it refers to the readme text next to "the ISO image"
    3. This is a copy of the read me file attached:-
    "This ReadMe document is one of the Windows Home Server Home Computer Restore CD files. Unless you changed the installation location during setup, the Home Computer Restore CD files and license terms are located in one of the following folders:
    * On Windows Vista: %HOMEPATH%\Documents\Windows Home Server Home Computer Restore CD (Dual Boot)
    * On Windows XP: %HOMEPATH%\My Documents\Windows Home Server Home Computer Restore CD (Dual Boot)
    To use the Home Computer Restore CD software, you must write the ISO image file (restorecd_dual.iso) to a blank CD. A CD/DVD burner is required to write
    the ISO image file to the CD. Usually a CD/DVD burner includes the software that you need to write ISO image files. Follow the instructions with your burner software, and then select the option to write an ISO image, not the option to write
    individual files. Note that you cannot write the ISO image by using Windows Explorer to copy the file to the CD-ROM drive.
    Burning the ISO image creates a bootable CD. To restore your home computer, boot the computer from the CD and follow the instructions.
    Microsoft may update the Windows Home Server Home Computer Restore CD software. You can download the latest version from the Microsoft Web site at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=109282.
    If you want to review the license terms for the Windows Home Server Home Computer Restore CD, the file EULA_DUAL.TXT can be found in the same folder"
    As you will see it refers to the downloaded .iso file. Nowhere is there a reference to a msi.  As there was only a run function on the downloaded file, it could not be saved. How is an ordinary Windows user meant to interpret the instructs
    if the download function does not work? What you do is try and follow the instructions and produce a load of frigging coffee mats, as it seems did many of the posters on this thread. Are we all illiterate?
    If Microsoft could think in the way of a user it would help a lot of people.
    So Rick Dee, please inform me how I misread the instructions?

  • Make bootable CD instructions for Sol8 download

    I would like to confess to this forum that I am another one of the numbskulls who is unable to make the CDs from the images.
    I tried to make the CDs by following the instructions at http://www.sun.com/software/solaris/binaries/instructions.html. As instructed, I also followed the instructions in EZ CD Creator to make bootable CDs. I wound up with many CD-Rs that could boot Win98 and prepare me to troubleshoot a faulty C:\ drive, leaving me at the A: prompt.
    But thanks to Allan of Sun Develloper Support, it seems that contradictory to the explicit instructions at the URL above, we must not create bootable CDs since the .iso images themselves are bootable.
    I get the feeling that making the CDs is just the easy part in the installation;its after now that the real headaches begin...

    Well, working in the MS world, it's been a while since I had Macs to troubleshoot, I did not know about the GUID partition setup, so thanks for that.
    I finally sorted thru a bunch of IDE's and setup a fixit drive. I used a cheap SATA/IDE combo drive adapter. now I can go thru drives including the 2.5" ones at leisure 8^)
    Am fat and happy on the DW front. I never used to have only one drive on any Mac, either, for exactly the same reasons listed here.
    Now I have to see if the spinning pizza wheel is still a problem. I ran top on the terminal. mds, fsevents, and directory services want to take turns being stuck, but not all the time. Seems good as I write this.
    Will update on that problem after I run some music for a while
    Thanks all.

  • Can i make bootable usb of already made recovery disks?

    i have hp pavillion dv4 series laptop.I have already made its recovery disks,which i need now.But my cd/dvd reader is not working,so i want to make bootable usb of these three disks.Can i do it or is there any other way for me??

    sawsank,
    had it been obvious, I would not have asked the question. In a number of discussions here, people will often mention details that are not relevant to their goal, which is why I’d asked for clarification.
    A Boot Camp partition can only be created in an internal disk, so Boot Camp can be ruled out in pursuit of your goal. (Once created internally, it won’t be bootable if it is subsequently made external.) Short of virtualizing Windows 7 in one of your four bootable OS X partitions, I don’t know the answer for how you can achieve it.

  • Does Time Machine make bootable backups?

    I used a beautiful backup program called Backup Simplicity in Tiger that made a bootable Exact duplicate of my HD into my external drive. That's really I want to do.
    This morning I tried Time Machine for the first time. It only put a backup folder on my external drive. That's not what I want to do.
    So here's my question, if I totally erase my external drive will Time Machine make a bootable duplicate of my HD on my external drive also?
    Also, is there a way to schedule Time Machine for backups manually?

    No, TimeMachine doesn't create a bootable backup, nor can it be controlled manually. The purpose of TimeMachine is to work behind the scenes backing up changed files. Later, when you realize something is amiss, you can 'go back in time' and fix the problem. Admittedly, I'm a little shaky on the details of just how flexible the retrieval system is since I've not yet played with that feature yet. But as I understand it, if you installed a new program and your computer suddenly started going nuts, you'll be able to use TimeMachine to restore your computer to the point before you installed that program. Or, if you realize you improperly edited a file, you'll be able to retrieve the file prior to that editing session.
    Apple's team realized three things: 1) most of us don't take the time to perform backups even though we know we should be doing it. 2) most of us don't really understand how to develop a good backup strategy. 3) computers today are so powerful that most of the time the CPU isn't working hard at all and those extra cycles might as well be put to use doing something useful. Hence, TimeMachine's design.
    As you noticed, TimeMachine makes a folder and does its incremental backups inside. Since I have an external drive that is much larger than my boot/data drive, I'll continue to clone my boot drive to this external once a week, just as I've been doing. If disaster strikes and I need to use the computer right now, I can do so and at worst my data will be one week out of date. (I should then be able to use TimeMachine to retrieve the missing data but the important thing is that I'm up and running again as soon as I've rebooted.) Later (or if I have the time right away) I'll use TimeMachine to restore/replace my boot drive.

  • Time machine to make bootable external hd?

    I just got a new MacBook for christmas. I used Macs years ago, but not in the past few years. Have a question:
    I had a 200 gig external usb drive handy, so I used it to do a Time Machine backup yesterday, now that I've got my mac all set up with my personal files, software installed, etc. It worked fine (though took LONG for only 40 gig of data). I've heard that it's possible for newer macs and 10.6 to boot from an external usb drive. Which got me thinking it might be a good idea to pick up another external usb drive, RESTORE my time machine backup to IT, and then if my internal drive dies, I'd be able to immediately boot off that external drive and be in business until I get around to replacing the internal drive.
    Anyway, it seems like a good "preventive maintenance" thing to do. My question is if this is indeed possible, what pitfalls I might run into, and the order of steps I should take to pull it off correctly.
    Much thanks for any help.

    yes, this is possible. in order to restore TM backups to the external first reformat the external correctly. it should be formatted mac os extended journaled and the partition scheme should be GUID. (that's important). then boot from the snow leopard install dvd and use the 'restore system from backup' utility in the Utilities menu to restore the backups to the external.
    the main pitfall here is that TM is still quite buggy and it's sometimes known not to back up (and restore) everything that it should. and you might not notice this right away. the best thing to do is to make a direct bootable clone using CCCloner or Superduper instead of restoring from TM. this will save you time and you won't be relying on just TM for everything.
    Much thanks for any help.

  • Cant make bootable USB Drive / Ext HD

    My hard drive gave out on me the other day, so i went and purchased a new one. However, my optical drive went dead a while back, so my only option to install the OS was via USB or Ext HD. I bought an ext disk drive, but i couldnt get it to run the installer when i booted up (Apple told me that installers wont work on USB ext disk drives) It DID recognize it when the computer was booted up, so i made a CDR of the Snow Leopard CD. I then looked on forums as so how to make it bootable. I cleared an ext, partitioned it, and selected GUID from options.
    Now where i run into trouble is here: I went into restore and dragged the cdr to the SOURCE field and the drive to DESTINATION. nothing would happen. i researched and found out that the cdr had to be a dmg. So i converted it. Now when i did it again, i got an error. I went into "scan image for restore" to see if the dmg was the problem, and i get the error: Unable to scan "Mac OS X Install DVD.dmg."(Invalid argument).
    Im assuming that i either didnt make the cdr correctly, or i converted it wrong. I still have copied of them both. Any help would be appreciated....

    If your optical drive isn't working how did you make a .dmg of it?
    Now, what you can do is take the DVD and your external HDD to a computer with a functioning optical drive. Use the Restore option of Disk Utility to clone the DVD to the external HDD:
    Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
    1. Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
    2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
    3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
    4.Check the box labeled Erase destination.
    5. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
    6. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
    7. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
    Destination means the external drive.
    Source means the OS X DVD.
    Be sure your external drive has been prepared correctly:
    Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Click on the Partition button and wait until the process has completed.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.

  • Unable to redownload OS X Mavericks to make bootable USB flash disk

    Hi,
    I'm trying to redownload Mavericks from the App Store so I can make myself a bootable USB so I can do a clean install.  The only problem is when I click on the download button for Mavericks from with Purchases, I get prompted with a message saying that "Mavericks is already installed, but if I wish to continue downloading the installer, click continue."  But when I do, I just get a spinning loader up top, and nothing starts to download...  I've tried pressing Atl or Command C (which was offered as a solution on another thread but just throws back an error ding sound at you when you do).
    Does anyone have an idea of how to  get around  this or another way of downloading the installer? 
    I'm starting to feel like I'm banging my head against the wall here...

    I ran into the same issue - downloaded and installed Mavericks yesterday, but forgot to save the download first so I could make a USB installer. When I went to re-download, I got the "Mavericks is already installed..." message, clicked Continue, the wheel at the top of the window started spinning, and then...nothing. I let the wheel spin for the better part of an hour several times without seeing any progress. Neither restarting App Store, nor Control-clicking the 'Download' button, nor attempting to download from the 'Purchases' tab succeeded in starting the download.
    I decided to try temporarily spoofing my OS X version, and it worked! Here's a step-by-step:
    1) If it's currently running, close App Store.
    2) In a Finder window, navigate to System/Library/CoreServices (you must have Finder set to display hidden and system files as detailed here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4505509).
    3) Copy 'SystemVersion.plist' to your Desktop, and then rename the copy to 'SystemVersionNEW.plist'.
    4) Using TextEdit, open this copy of the file, and change the system version listed under the 'ProductUserVisibleVersion' and 'ProductVersion' fields to something lower than 10.9 (I used 10.7, but I suspect anything lower than 10.9 would work).
    5) Save the file on the Desktop.
    6) Copy your newly edited 'SystemVersionNEW.plist' into the System/Library/CoreServices directory.
    7) At this point, run App Store. Leave it at its initial welcome screen, which today is showing the big 'OS X Mavericks' banner at the top.
    8) Now go back to your Finder window(s), rename the original file to 'SystemVersionOLD.plist', and rename 'SystemVersionNEW.plist' to 'SystemVersion.plist', effectively replacing the original file with your edited version.
    * Note here that in order to rename the original 'SystemVersion.plist' file, you will probably have to edit its Sharing and Permissions settings by Control-clicking on it, selecting 'Get Info', scrolling down to the bottom of the info window, clicking the lock icon, entering your password, and then changing all the entries in the 'Sharing and Permissions' window just above the lock icon from 'Read Only' to 'Read & Write'. (Once you finish the process and your download has started, you can go back and change permissions back to 'Read Only'.)
    9) Go back to App Store and click on the OS X Mavericks banner (if you don't see the OS X Mavericks banner at the top of the window, just do a search for 'Mavericks' and click on 'OS X Mavericks' when it comes up in the search results). If everything has worked as it did for me, you'll now see a 'Free Download' button, instead of 'Download'. Click it, then click 'Install' and your download should begin.
    10) As soon as the download appears on your Launchpad with a progress bar, you can go back to Finder, delete 'SystemVersion.plist", and rename 'SystemVersionOLD.plist' to 'SystemVersion.plist', replacing your edited version with the original.
    As always, it's a good idea to be careful when editing system files, and make backups before changing anything.
    Note that you must have App Store running already before renaming the original 'SystemVersion.plist' file; if you make the change in step 8 and then try to run App Store, it will throw an error and won't start.

  • GUID format needed to make bootable HD for intel iMac?

    I have one brand new 1TB hard drive, and an old 250GB. Both Lacies.
    I have a newish intel iMac and an old G4 tower.
    Am I right in thinking that, in order to make a bootable clone for the iMac, I need to format the 1TB as GUID? Will I then not be able to boot from it on the G4?
    Confused, and want to get this right. THANKS!

    If you want to install OS X freshly to the drive then you need it to be partitioned using GUID to boot an Intel Mac. However, if you clone an existing Intel system to the drive then the drive can be partitioned using APM. However, an Intel version of OS X cannot be used to boot a PPC Mac. To accomplish what you want you need to partition the drive into two volumes - one will hold the clone of your Intel Mac and one will hold the clone of your PPC Mac.
    You may need to re-partition the drive as it is. It may already be partitioned GUID, so you will need to change that.
    Do the following:
    Extended Hard Drive Preparation
    1. Open Disk Utility in your Utilities folder.
    2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
    3. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to APM then click on the OK button. Set the number of partitions from the dropdown menu to two (2) then use the sizing gadget to change the size of each volume to whatever you prefer. The default will be equal sized partitions. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Partition button and wait until the volumes mount on the Desktop.
    4. Select the volume you just created (this is the sub-entry under the drive entry) from the left side list. Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
    5. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Options button, check the button for Zero Data and click on OK to return to the Erase window.
    6. Click on the Erase button. The format process can take up to several hours depending upon the drive size.
    Steps 4-6 are optional but should be used on a drive that has never been formatted before, if the format type is not Mac OS Extended, if the partition scheme has been changed, or if a different operating system (not OS X) has been installed on the drive.
    At this point you can now clone your existing computers to their respective volumes. The cloned Intel system should boot the Intel Mac and the cloned PPC system should boot the G4. After you clone the systems you should of course verify the clones are good by starting each computer from their respective cloned systems.
    You can clone using Disk Utilities Restore option or any backup utility that can create bootable clones such as Carbon Copy Cloner - VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

  • Can I make bootable ext disk image on USB 2.0 drive?

    I would like to upgrade finally to OS X Lion.  Before I do that I would like to make an image backup using something like Super Duper to an external USB 2.0 disk drive.  I would like this to be a bootable image.  Can I do this?

    Yes, although I recommend the more intelligent Carbon Copy Cloner over Superduper just for the fact that it was first, more powerful and donationware, SD might be eaiser and offer more handholding,  it's part payware.

    I really do not recommend pre-2011 Intel Mac's (unless they are powerful, 4GB of RAM) to upgrade to Lion, however with a bootable clone of 10.6 (which is what your asking for) would get your machine back on 10.6 eaiser than a total rebuild and reinstall of 10.6.
    Also a LOT of third party programs and older printer/scanner drivers/software/hardware may not work with Lion neither.
    I do recommend to backup data off the machine, a fresh install of 10.6 then upgrade to 10.7, then install Lion programs and then return files method over the upgrade over 10.6 method.
    To boot from the Carbon Copy Clone, hold th option key and select the external drive to boot from.

  • Disk utility to make bootable Vista on external hard drive

    Hi All,
    I've browsed a bit in search of an answer to this question but I've not gotten anything definitive yet. I hope you can help...
    My goal is to do turn a disk image (iso) into a bootable Vista install, on an external hard drive. I have successfully done this on the EHD using this process:
    http://iuseapple.com/blog/apple-how-to/advanced-os-x/2007/10/29/how-to-install-l eopard-from-external-firewire-hard-drive/
    My reasoning was that a similar process would work for Vista, but I'm hitting a wall. Some ideas of what may be the problem:
    The Vista partition on my EHD is 2.5 gigs, which is just a hair larger than my iso of Vista. Should I make the partition more generous?
    The partition is formatted in FAT32. I have had issues with this before, when trying to put over 2GB (or was it 4GB?) onto a FAT32 disk at once. I learned how to split dmgs/isos into pieces and move them over like that. Could that be the issue? If so, is it possible to accomplish my goal with a multi-part image?
    I don't know that much about Vista. Will it just not tolerate a boot from an EHD?
    The progress I've made so far is limited--I keep hitting a wall in Disk Utility. As in the Leopard approach, I attempt to Restore the image (Vista.iso) to the target drive (Win Vista). The computer thinks about it and then gives me a 254 error and a message along the lines of "could not validate source."
    Any help would be appreciated. (Including a definitive "this won't work.")
    Thanks in advance,
    edge65

    Windows will neither install on nor boot from external drives.

  • R&R 4.5 cannot make bootable USB

    Hi, i have upgraded to R&R 4.5, but i have the problem. I have switched to UEFI, so my system SSD drive is GPT now. I have reformated my USB drive for backups to GPT as well. Now i started R&R to make first backup and make my USB disc bootable. When i start first backup, it asks me if to make partition bootable. I confirmed, it started Create Rescue Media process but immediatly displayed dialog "Insufficient partition size to complete the operation. The partition must have 1000 MB of available space to complete this operation". But i have no idea, what partition. USB drive is empty, only one parition created, so what is the problem? If i confirm this error dialog, it continues with making backup, but then USB drive is not bootable. Thanks for advice.
